First Google Chrome on Mac screenshot appears

Mac users who have been waiting patiently for the arrival of Google Chrome, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. A member of the development team has posted a screenshot of the browser in the Chrome Group.

Though the rendering engine isn't actually doing anything yet, Chrome does correctly open new instances of the renderer with new tabs and close it when the tab closes. Chrome Developer Docs called for a "working browser window using the real multi-process infrastructure (not TestShell) by mid-February."

Time is rapidly running out on that goal, but you can bet the team will continue to forge ahead.

Linux users, you're next on the list - though likely you won't see much progress until after the Mac version is working.
