Midori? Huh?

I've heard that there was a superproject going around there, and it is Microsoft fault, or creation if you wish. Basically, from what I've heard, they are writting code for a new operating system which will be different from the Windows antecessors, relying on... Internet? I can't gather a lot of information, but I'd like to read your oppinions on this new OS to be brought by MS in maybe some years, maybe some centuries.

I don't see the point. Maybe if I could read some article, we could debate about it.

If that is the system where you pay per use etc. (I forgot the details), that one is meant for companies so they have an easier time with cost calculations and from what i know the companies actually appreciate it.
If it's something else, then I'm not interested and an operating system for use over the internet sounds stupid in every possible way, to the point that I doubt it could ever really take off.
