Looks like the folks at Dell are really interested in the upcoming Google Chrome OS. They have compiled a version of the OS to work on the flagship Mini 10v netbook. All you need is a 8GB flash drive and you are good to go. Just plug in the flash drive with the OS image and boot right into it. No hassles whatsoever. Ofcourse the version of the OS is a beta, so don’t expect it to be foolproof.

Ok…this gets exciting. Now we finally have the Google Chrome OS available. But there is a catch. You cannot install the OS all by itself, you will need a virtualization software to run this software. A good start will be to arrange VMWare or VirtualBox first. So get yourself the right version depending on whether you are running OS X or Windows. By the way VirtualBox is available for free although VMWare is still somewhat better.

Today was Google’s Chrome OS announcement day. Until now, it seemed to be something unknown in the dark. Company co-founder Sergey Brin was there to kick-off the event. After that the Engineering team took over and explained the objective of the OS and how it works. Obviously…because not too many people have heard about a web based OS before. The key feature of the OS is that it will only run web apps.

The time has come. Finally we will be able to take a peek at the upcoming and much awaited Google Chrome OS. Most PC users are having high hopes on Google especially after the success of Android, which obviously proved that Google can make a good OS. But things are different now. An OS for PC is complicated, especially when there is a much bigger fish around…something called Microsoft Windows. But hey…it’s Google we are talking about, which is full of smart people!

Few more screenshots of the upcoming PC operating system from Google shows up again. A lot of people are betting on Chrome OS which is actually targeted to netbooks. TechCrunch reports the following screenshots. One thing is noticeably different from other desktop OS is the size of the application icons…may be because the OS will support touch functionality or may be just because its a netbook thing.

With another OS revolution in the horizon, we couldn’t stop searching for any more updates on the upcoming Google Chrome OS. Looks like we may have found some. Here’s a few shots of the one of the most anticipated OS. Ofcourse this is nowhere close to the final version which is scheduled to be released sometime mid 2010, but it is still a working Private Developer Beta.
