Google has provided more details about its upcoming Google Chrome OS. I've you missed the boat, Chrome OS is a stripped-down Linux that should boot quickly and launch a browser (Chrome).

Distribution and hardware: you and I can't download Chrome and install it, apparently. Users will have to buy a Chrome OS machine. I suppose that Google *has to* to that considering their currently don't have a driver SDK, and therefore can't let 3rd

The competition should form them cheap to buy, but not much cheaper than today's Netbooks, which are as cheap as can be. Chrome will run on Intel and ARM processors.Permalink: Google Chrome OS, What's New? from Ubergizmo | Hot: Motorola Droid Review
