Leaked screenshots of products often draw quite the nerdy crowd. This supposedly leaked shot of an early Google Chrome OS build is no different, especially given the contenders the little OS is up against: Apple, Microsoft, and the free loving community that supports Linux. The screenshot shows a very minimal looking desktop. Though, seeing as how the actual release of said OS isn’t until sometime next year, I’m sure the desktop will undergo some refinements and alterations before go time. The person to thank for the early eye grab would be an Acer parts supplier residing in Taiwan. The legitimacy of these photos does have some doubts however as such a screenshot wouldn’t be that hard to put together yourself. Moving forward, what exactly does this early build of Chrome OS show us?
You may ask how did I take a screenshot on the Pre? The truth is I didn’t. But I now know how thanks to Mobile Crunch. No one wants to do the digital equivelant of standing on one foot while rubbing your head, patting your stomach, and making shapes out of your tongue when such simple things can be accomplished with a few button presses. Luckily the Palm Pre follows a simple approach to the whole life capturing process by only requiring “3″ buttons to take screenshot. The “orange”, “symbol”, and “p” keys when depressed together will give you a perfectly captured image of your Pre’s screen allowing you to show your friends and co-workers just how you roll. Now all we have to do is actually get our hands on one…
