Google Chrome OS Linux i686 1.0.628 OEM Beta x86 | 722 MB
Google Chrome OS is a Linux operating system, based on Ubuntu and designed by Google to work exclusively with web applications. Google announced the operating system on July 7, 2009 and made it an open source project, called Chromium OS, that November. Unlike Chromium OS, which can be compiled from the downloaded source code, Chrome OS will only ship on specific hardware from Google's manufacturing partners. The user interface takes a minimalist approach, resembling that of the Chrome web browser. Because Google Chrome OS is aimed at users who spend most of their computer time on the Internet, the only application on the device will be a browser incorporating a media player. The expected launch date for retail hardware featuring Chrome OS has slipped since Google first announced the operating system: from late 2010 to early 2011 to, by some reports, mid-2011.
