Have you ever seen a Operating System inside a browser? Have you ever seen a Internet Explorer inside a Firefox Browser? Maybe you have recently moved to Linux/Mac operating system from Windows but you are missing familiar interface and want to spend some time on Microsoft Windows but don't have access to it, if this is scenario for you then here is windows4all.com.

Windows4all.com is a Silverlight based online virtual operating system. It is is a website that simulates an operating system inside your web browser. Windows4all.com replicates the desktop environment of a modern operating system. You can launch applications right away without installation.

The practical use I can see for these types of things are if you are really wanting to have a place to use while at work or home but not on their PC.

I have eyeos installed in my personal site for myself. I don't use it though. :) I have it set up for when I get a new job that lets me work and go to my personal site. I have it set up to link to my personal music files, other files as well so I can use them or change them when I can.

I did look atht eh link for this one and it is nice and smooth, but like the other stuff, I can't really see my need to be using it daily.

    • It's a Developer Beta 1 not even a Public or User Beta, I doubt any of the design is 100% finalized yet.
    • Was going to comment the same thing. It's SO annoying to have to go back to settings every time I install something new or some apps like discord update and the icon is hidden again.
