Google Chrome OS netbooks are due towards the end of this year and those netbooks will have the consumer version of the OS. There will also be a business version of the OS coming the following year in 2011 which will have functionality suited to businesses, or “more management muscle” as Drewry, Google software security engineer puts it.
On the point of security, Chrome OS netbooks may come with a hardware switch located underneath the battery which lets you turn off some specialized security functions so you can run in “developer mode”, a feature which will allow developers to tinker with Chrome OS code and bring up new ideas.
