Google just keeps invading new territories, and its latest target is your computer’s operating system. It’s officially released the open source code for its Chrome OS, an operating system that will turn up in third-party vendors’ netbooks. Those devices should start selling next year. With Chrome, Google takes a very different approach than major OSes like Windows, Mac OS, or even most Linux distributions. It’s sort of like what would happen if an Ubuntu mated with a Firefox. It’s basically a browser that does not run on an operating system — it is an operating system.
