Dell has recently offered a custom-made download of Google's Chromium OS (the open-source adaptation of Chrome Operating System), exclusively for its well-liked Mini 10V netbook.

Google talk about its forthcoming operating system (OS) at a current press event, as well as revealed the source code. Since after that a range of builds of Chromium have surfaced online.

Dell completed the customized download available, offering all Mini 10V holders the faultless weekend project. All you want to do in order to give Chromium OS a try is a spare 8GB on a USB flash drive. Once downloaded, just shift the image onto the flash drive, plug it in-to your Mini 10V, as well as take pleasure in. It's worth noting that Dell's custom build is pre-beta as well as can be unbalanced.

Sorry to say early reports recommend that the Wi-Fi can proceed up; it might take up to 15 minutes to set access points--ironic considering Chrome's Web-centric design. But as Google assured, the boot-up time is reportedly very good, taking not more than 12 seconds.
