    The logo from Chrome OS, and using “OS” in the name (as IBM did) reminds me of the logo used for IBM’s “OS” back in the early 90s. And, those are bad memories. ugh.
    I know the logos are not really that similar – beyond the circle and using some of the same colors – but Google has done enough to renew memories, at a primal level, of an OS that was a POS.
    Poor marketing? Maybe it is just me.
