Last Monday, Glen Murphy a user interface designer for Google’s Chrome browser and the Chrome operating system pointed out on twitter that new image and video concepts of a Chrome OS-based tablet that nobody had noticed, that were released 2 days before the iPad release (great timing).  He ointed this out by tweeting “Apparently our tablet mocks have been unearthed.”  As stated on the Chromium form factors site “its primary focus is Netbooks, Chrome OS could eventually scale to a wide variety of devices. Each would have vastly different input methods, available screen space, and processing power,”.

I’ve tested out the new Google Chrome OS, and am not sure if I like it or not.  Its very much like Linux, but would not switch it with Windows 7…  The screenshots below were taken by me.  It does come with Gimp and OpenOffice.
