Dell is among the first to offer semi-informal Wi-Fi driver support on its Mini 10v line of netbooks

Some users have reported early success getting wireless working with the newest line of Asus EEE PC’s, but Dell is among the first to offer semi-informal Wi-Fi driver support on its Mini 10v line of netbooks. To further sweeten the deal for Dell owners, you can pickup a preconfigured USB key image that is ready to rock and roll. The file contains the OS along with functioning support for the Broadcom Wi-Fi adapter.
The list of people who are jonesing to get their netbooks up and running with the alpha version of Google’s ChromiumOS is fairly short, especially given the relatively poor driver support for Wi-Fi. Its hard to hold a grudge against any piece of software with the “alpha” tag, but lets be honest, a netbook OS without Wi-Fi is sure to put a bit of a damper on our enthusiasm.
Before you get too excited however, you should know that Dell describes the image as “highly experimental, untested, and unstable”, so it would be best to keep your expectations in check. If you’re thinking of giving this a try, make sure you check out the Dell blog posting to see the complete list of caveats.
There is something to be said of locally stored files too...which chrome os doesn't really do. For a netbook, this may work for some people, for me, not really. I would be MUCH more interested in a google spin on the destop linux type distros...like a google ubuntu/debain clone, or suse, or fedora or something...
If there is any segment of linux's market that could use big finantial backing, it's the desktop segment... I believe ubuntu netbook remix, moblin, windows7, and probably even android work better for a netbook then does chromeos. Just my oppinion though.
