Google this week released early developer channel versions of its Chrome browser for the Mac OS X and Linux platforms. Google emphasized that both new versions are very much rough drafts intended for developers, not for consumers looking for a smooth browsing experience.

However, porting to Linux may be even more important, because it will help Google gain ground with netbooks running Android.
