bundled apps include a calendar, calculator, text editor, and web browser (how meta), and there are a few that you can
install from the web including an IRC client, but that's basically it for now. However, it does look like a very slick
project, so here's hoping EyeOS will find some traction (a hosted service would help) and turn out to be something
worth using.
