Operating system from Google search engine authority, Chrome OS, ready to be downloaded next week. Thus the gossip on the Internet. The bad news, though Google said has worked with Acer, Adobe, Asus, Freescale, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments and Toshiba on its Chrome OS, the number of devices that support earlier this operating system will be limited.

According to TechCrunch, these limitations are due to the absence of support for hardware components such as network interface and graphics cards. As a result you will not be able to download the Chrome OS and run it on any machine.

Google initially said that the netbook that can run this OS will not be available to the public before the second semester of 2010. However, the code might be open (open source) in the coming weeks, as promised in Google Chrome Blog.

Also Chrome web browser – do not be related to Chrome OS, despite the same name – it will be coming to Apple Mac in December. In a letter to the developers, Nick Baum (Project Manager Chrome browser) said that the Chrome beta version of 4.0 that was only available for Windows and Linux will also be present in the Apple Mac. Google launched Chrome browser in 2008 and currently still in experimental stages.
