That makes no sense to me. Google Native Client is just a desperate attempt to hide expensive code from other companies. How many nuclear power plants, switches, routers, undersea pipelines, servers and UPS systems are needed to run a Facebook turd-app connected to Google DRM anyway ? Talking about the slowness of Javascript is amusing when 856 sub-systems needs to be operational for a Web 2.0 "Hello World".

Give me a break. Americans have no cash and live on credit, thereby creating a marked for AT/T, McDonald's and Google.

That makes no sense to me. What does everything after the second sentence have to do with NaCl?

Perhaps you're replying to a different comment than the one I made? I was talking about the difficulty of creating complex, responsive user interfaces in JavaScript. NaCl (if it works out) seems to open another path for developing interface-heavy apps for the web.
