 EV> Can ChromeOS run in a virtualbox on a XP pc?

I ran one of the distributions inside of Virtualbox, can't remember which 
version of ChromeOS it was. I don't think the official version runs on a lot 
of hardware, but others have ported it.

All of the google docs can work offline on Windows. I wrote a novel in 
Google Docs and was able to work offline, then it'd upload the documents 
when I got back onto the network. I'd guess ChromeOS would do the same.
