No, but I've read Lab Rat, now I know how and why Rattman drew those murals.
She tried to kill us in a pico-ninth of a second. That was better than last time.

Is that related to the Portal 2 Skyrim mod? If so, no.

GLaDOS facts:
the copyright on the GLaDOS software runs until 1997
GLaDOS' name is never said once in both games.
Between her first awakening in Portal 2 and the chapter, "the escape", GLaDOS changes her body and redoes her room.
It took twenty years of hard work and labor for the scientists, and when they activated her, she promptly killed them all with neurotoxin.
the DOS is GLaDOS' body, and the GL is her head.

As you can see, I've taken it upon myself to learn all there is to know about GLaDOS.

GLaDOS Stands for Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System.
She is Chell's mother, Cave's fiance, and also no more than a personality core, meaning that some other personality constructs may also be human personalities, enabling them to take her place.
The entire facility was designed with access to the control areas built for cores on the off chance GLaDOS was put back into a single construct for emergency reasons, but still needed control of the facility to some degree.

I hate how everyone thinks GLaDOS = Caroline and Caroline = Chell's mother.
First of all: They built a giant computer called GLaDOS. She was insane and in just a sixteenth of a picosecond she would immediately try to kill all of the scientists. By creating personality cores, they could fill her mind with useless information so that there would be a delay in her going on a murderous rampage, but it still didn't work that well. They finally came up with a plan to have Caroline be the AI in GLaDOS by somehow hooking her and GLaDOS up. Caroline resisted at first, and after an argument with Cave relunctently agreed. However, GLaDOS realized what was going on, pushed away the Caroline AI, and, pretending to be Caroline, asked for a ton of nuerotoxin and kittens for "testing".
[Blegh, I gtg,i'll finish this later.]

Actually, no.
She IS caroline, because according to lab-rat neither caroline nor cave were present at the time of GLaDOS's first activation, meaning she was already in there.
Also, "Bring your daughter to work day"'s science fair had a project BY CHELL.
Cave was dead by then because wheatley was activated to see that, and you can only have two parents.

Major differences between Portal (p1) and Portal 2 (p2):

In p2, the doors have little running dudes on them

In p2, the emancipation grilles look less like grills and more like a two dimensional ocean

In p2, GLaDOS' remains are inside, whereas in p1, they are outside

In p2, GLaDOS' head looks different

In p2, elevators look different and are inside of the transportation tubes

In p2, the ASHPD doesn't glow

In p2, both of a sentry turrets' gun barrels are the sme length, in p1, the lower one is longer

I might post more later...

In P1, it has a more cartoonish style.

In P1, Chell's model looks older.

In P1, it has more cutscenes.

In P1, the cores look different.

In P1, there is no gels.

In P1, there are rocket turrets.

In P1, there were more references to other VALVe games.

In P1, there were less achievements/trophies.

I just got off Portal 2's new puzzle creator, and MAN was the wait worth it! It takes forever to load levels you just finished building, though. And, I've noticed that the character you play during homemade test chambers is one of those little stick figure dudes from the investment oppurtunity videos! How awesome is that!?

Nice, I had a go on my friend's PC version (remember how I have the Xbox 360 version) and we made a level where you had to make turrets fly to get past them. It's difficult, but so fun!

Actually, no.

Pikachu1337 has a point. I knew that GLaDOS was caroline from the lecture GLaDOS gives you at the end of portal 2 about valuable lessons. After she deleated caroline, she let you free because it was too dangerous for chell to stay in aperture, because GLaDOS was afraid that she was going to kill her friend, Chell. But it was nice how GLaDOS gave chell the companion cube at the end. 

Hey GLaDOS2, can i friend you? You seem cool! A fellow portal fan.
, just like myself.

I'm building a test chamber where basically you have to "escape". I'm trying to make it look like some sort of max-security prison. It will be very large, which will be a problem since my comuter takes around five minutes to load up even very tiny chambers. :(  Oh, well. The first part of the test involves around three sets of laser fields. I just found out that they kill you on contact. I don't recomend on trying it out.

Okay, I've found three cake references in Portal 2.
1. Rattmann's drawing
2. The "door" to GLaDOS' room (it's a lie)
3. Not many people know about this, but when you fall into the relaxation chamber, pick up the clipboard and zoom in on the bottom right corner. There is a cake sign. Probably because they reused the object from Portal.

I actually heard Chell make a noise while playing Portal. I was getting crushed by one of those big masher piston things in one of the escape levels, and I heard Chell gasp. So she isn't completely noisless after all.
