Google Chrome OS Business Edition: 2011

Mar 6 2010, 12:01pm CST | by Robert Evans

Chrome OS will make its debut sometime later this year, most likely right in the middle of the holiday season. Now Network World (via Netbooked) has just learned that a business edition of Chrome OS will be launching as well. It will hit in 2011.

There are no hard details on the business edition yet. It is said to feature “more management muscle” (according to a Google software engineer) and a hell of a lot more security. Some Chrome OS netbooks could actually pack a hardware switch that allows you to toggle security functions and run in developer mode.

When not in dev mode, Business Edition Chromebooks will probably be considerably more limited than their civvy cousins. That's about all we know for now, but stay tuned-this story will be developing for a while.
