Changelog Wrote:2009-11-14: New Chrome OS 0.4.237 beta is available now!
Chrome OS is a brand new free operating system built around the revolutionary Google Chrome browser.
The project aim is to provide a lightweight Linux distribution for the best web browsing experience.
Featured software in Chrome OS:
* GNOME 2.24 desktop environment
* Google Chrome 4.0.237 web browser
* Google Picasa 2.7 photo manager
* OpenOffice.org 3.0 office suite
* GIMP 2.6 image editor
* Flash Player 10.0 plugin
* and much more!
The download servers are probably as stable as the OS at this point..took me a few tries to get it to download, but here's the source

might as well have a look at it on a virtual machine, thanks
so it really is just another Linux Distro?
Hmm... Google can market a lot but I'm not sure about this.
from the looks of things this is fan made, i can't tell
Looking at the screenshots >>
http://getchrome.eu/screenshots.php
The second one doesn't have the "Chrome OS Icon" that the "leaked" screenshot has so I think you're right FBR.
Its a fanmade version.
i think this picture explains it all, this os is slow and just linux with chrome isntalled
LOL built with Suse Studio.... haha brilliant.
so whaaaiit...
this is just a new shell on top of the linux kernel?
if so, then are the console commands restricted and is superuser disabled? or is it a full-on installation. i might be persuaded to try it, but, remembering the google chrome browser, tis probably too noob friendly, and removes all the really powerful parts of linux.
plus, its build using suse??
why would they pick suse?
what's wrong with debian, fedora, LFS, archlinux, slackware, and all the others??
it seems really random that they would pick suse as their base distro.
considering google is this multibillion dollar, multinational company, i would expect them to code their own distro off of the kernel, not simply reskin an existing distro.
c'mon google, get in the game!
