So Chrome OS was debuted by Google on Thursday (11/19/09)..  shortly after that there were source code downloads popping up on the Internet… released by Google so that people could play with it a bit.

I downloaded the VMWare/Virtualbox archive last night and gave it a shot.  Once you start the virtual machine it almost immediately asks you for a login and password to continue.  This is of course your Google account user/pass.  Once I entered it, it was almost just like running a chrome browser – but with a tab on the left with links to items like google docs, webmail (gmail/hotmail/etc..), a calculator and other goodies.

It was a little sketchy – crashy..  it crashed on me a couple times and you could tell something just wasn’t right with it yet – but here are the pictures to prove it can be done!
