Google's Chrome OS to Finally Launch on Acer Netbooks

Google's much anticipated operating system, Chrome OS, will finally be revealed at the Computex Taipei show early next month.  Reportedly, Acer will launch netbooks equipped with Chrome OS.  Via venturebeat.com:

It’s still unclear how Chrome OS-equipped netbooks will coexist with those running Google’s Android mobile operating system. We’ve known that Android netbooks would begin popping up this year since early 2009, and even Acer announced its intention to sell them.

This comes one day after Verizon CEO, Lowell McAdam, announced they were working with Google to create an Android-based tablet to rival Apple's iPad.

Update:  Acer has now denied the reports that they will be introducing netbooks running Chrome OS at Computex so we will have to wait a little longer to see the operating system in action.  In the meantime, here are some screenshots of what it might look like.
