Ersei, the developer behind this so-called Cloud Native Computer, says the project was primarily a “silly” pursuit. There is also a problem with booting from Google Drive currently being very slow. However, the dev also boasts that “the possibilities are endless” and would welcome any companies or individuals who wish to get in contact and discuss commercializing this project or something related to it.

Maybe in larger orgs. I'm guessing it's also used in public computers like in city and university libraries, as well as quick imaging of corporate computers at larger companies.

Yup. At work, we have a contractual requirement to replace certain PCs within a certain time frame. (Don't ask, it's stupid.) And we've got a lot of them. So we've got the Windows imaging process scripted to be very low-touch. (It also makes it much easier when someone leaves or has a really fucked up PC. Give them a new one, restore their data, reimage the old.)

I used it along with Fog in the military to image ~60 computers every once in a while.
