Google Chrome OS, Pre-Install

Everyone knows that Google is creating its own custom operating system to compete with the giants over at Microsoft and Apple. What most don’t know is that Chrome OS is a build of the open source project Chromium. It is this bit of information that allows someone tech savvy enough to preview a build of Chromium before Google drops their own version.

Over the next few days I will be converting my netbook which is an Acer Aspire One into a living, breathing, Chromium box. Stay tuned for pictures and opinions on the most anticipated OS since Windows 95.

Edit: I don’t think I am going to even bother. I threw Ubuntu on my netbook and couldn’t be happier! It’s high time I learned a little more about the Linux environment.

Edit 2: Ok formatted the Ubuntu and am now installing Chromium.
