Dell is working on a project currently called “Ophelia” that is “a complete, self-contained PC” that also happens to be as big as a USB thumb drive. But the killer feature of Ophelia is that it uses “virtual instances of… operating systems running in the cloud” to give users access to “Windows, Mac OS, Google’s Chrome OS, Dell’s custom cloud solutions, Citrix cloud software, and even Google’s Chrome OS.” Let’s take a step back and think about what this really means. If you plug Ophelia into a flat-panel television, it will connect to the nearest Wi-Fi network and give you access to any type of operating system or app that is running virtually somewhere in the cloud.
It's still a long wait for the average consumer get their hands on this one as it has just been made available to to the testers.
And there are talks that they want to actually get the price down to $50, now that's sleek!! This surely can give ChromeCast a run for the money if it can hit the market soon enough.
Hopefully this will turn it around of Dell, being an ex-employee I surely wish them good luck!!
