Another fake Google Chrome OS trended today on twitter and got everyone very excited.

The ChromeOSLinux site had actually been up for some time (hosted on Google Sites of all places) and was essentially a linux build that included the Chrome browser and a few other apps. The site has since been removed… I can only imagine by Google.

If you looked carefully (well not that much care was really needed) you could see that a group called SUSE Studio claimed to be behind it. It could be these guys perhaps… seems to make sense as they create custom linux builds. I’d think that they have got plenty of good PR from this :)

One of the screenshots certainly seemed to give some people the wrong idea.
