Chrome OS set to arrive earlier than expected

Reuters is reporting that Pichai says Chrome OS will arrive earlier than expected. Although it was originally slated for a December 2010 release, Pichai has indicated that Chrome OS will ship this fall.
As I mentioned yesterday, Chrome OS already looks like something Google could push out as a beta release. Whether that happens soon remains to be seen, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if the half way point (and Apple's WWDC) look like a good time for Google to strike.

Will ChromeOS launch on select netbooks/laptops only or will we be able to download and install it to whatever we want like Ubuntu?
I'd love to throw ChromeOS on my HP Mini 1030

I really don't get why everybody's fuzzing around because of Chrome OS. It's just another try to assemble user profiles for marketing (and whatever other) reasons. Just think of the first Chrome (browser) release and its UUID and the Wifi-sniffing-lawsuit against Google in Germany. But just go ahead and use Chrome OS. There's a good chance to to find your private data at google.com ;).
Just in case sombody's going to ask... this is not intended to be another paranoid post. I'm simply asking myself why would a company be so damn generous to push out any application it developted itself for free? Guess what...
