“Asked to comment, Dell said it’s looking into the matter. And
in the meantime, the company pointed out that just after Google
released its first snapshot of code to the Chromium OS project,
Dell engineer Doug Anson put out his own unofficial Chrome OS build

latest on June 8 here. ‘I really enjoy popping out these images
every few weeks,’ Anson said recently on the Chromium discussion
mailing list. ‘I can say that the images themselves seem to be
getting better and better with each iteration.'”
