I already tried it on VirtualBox.

 

Well, it might be a good OS if we just need to be on the internet. It juste look like Chrome software :rolleyes: .

 

You can download a virtual disk here too : http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/5170843/chromeos-image-999.999.32309.211410-a1.vmdk.bz2 (it works with Virtualbox too).

I tryed it the other day it came out, can't get internet to work through WiFi but hmm a browser-only operating system, may work good on Netbooks.

if you have VMware, you have to use version 7, set the OS to debian linux and set the networking to be bridged, otherwise it won't work, I have not gotten this working with VMware 6, and haven't tried it on virtualbox
