Google OS was unveiled earlier today along with the opensource source for the operating system [1]. We shared some screenshots and videos of Chrome OS [2] earlier today. however, the folks at gdgt.com were good enough to compile the source and create a working version of Google OS which can be run on the virtual machine VMWare.

Here are some exclusive screenshots of the working version of Google OS on VMWare and Virtual Box.

The login screen is of a typical OS, but you cannot create users locally. You will have to use your Google Account to login to Chrome OS.

I tried creating Applications shortcut, however, there was no desktop or applications menu to access them, will dig more and post more screenshots whenever available.

Download Google OS at Gdgt.com [3] [Thanks @ginatrapani [4]]
