Google Chrome OS

Google has announced their new Operating System for computers named Google Chrome.

The official announcement on Google blogs says "We designed Google Chrome for people who live on the web — searching for information, checking email, catching up on the news, shopping or just staying in touch with friends. However, the operating systems that browsers run on were designed in an era where there was no web. So today, we're announcing a new project that's a natural extension of Google Chrome — the Google Chrome Operating System. It's our attempt to re-think what operating systems should be".

Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks and it is a separate project from Android.

The new OS will run on both x86 as well as ARM chips and we are working with multiple OEMs to bring a number of netbooks to market next year.
