Flash is key to Sapotek's free OS

Web-delivered graphical user interface looks a bit like Windows, includes standard fare of apps

Using Adobe's Flash, Sapotek is taking a different approach to delivering Web-based productivity. Instead of offering individual apps as discreet "Web-ware" offerings, it delivers an entire desktop operating system--complete with storage and applications--into a browser. Perhaps just as interesting is that all of the built-in applications, some written from scratch by Sapoteck, are open-sourced.
