After 5 months after Google Chrome was released for Windows  download, many users demand for the Mac and Linux version. There are some developers who create an unofficial Chrome-Crossover Chromium that works on Mac and Linux and it really works!

Google Operating System had post some details about the progress and some screenshots of Chrome. There is also a document from the Chrome's site that show some listings of the remaining features that need to be implemented.

Mike Pinkerton stated that Mac version of Chrome will definitely released first before Linux's version. He also has some little explanation about the Mac port. Here is what he says:

"We made a list early in the week of the key classes on the critical path to getting a renderer launching and showing bits on the screen. Our goal was to have a renderer being spawned by launching the browser by the end of this week. The list is now almost all green and as of this morning we hit our goal (one day early!) to have renderer processes launched. In fact, we launch a new renderer with each tab, and when the tab is closed, the renderer goes away!! You can see it come and go in Activity Monitory. All this goes through the cross-platform infrastructure with a Cocoa front-end."

Here is some of the first screenshots of Google Chrome on Mac (click for full view):
