CrossOver Chromium is a Mac and Linux port of the open source Chromium web browser. CrossOver Chromium is available for download from CodeWeavers, free of charge.
Google Chrome is built with open source code from Chromium.
Google has announced plans to support native Mac and Linux versions of Chromium, but they have yet to be released. CrossOver Chromium, however, runs the Windows version of Chromium natively on both Mac and Linux.
CrossOver Chromium is a technology proof-of-concept to demonstrate Wine’s capabilities for rapidly migrating Windows software to new marketplaces, such as Linux and Mac.
CrossOver Chromium is available as a native Mac .dmg file, or as Linux packages. Mac users can simply drag the .dmg file into their Applications folder. Linux users should use the appropriate tools for their respective Linux distributions to unpack the installer package.

Who cares? What the world needs now AIN’T another Web browser!
native or forget it. I have seen way too many ports and they are as ugly as windows.
Wow.
Chrome sucks itself off a trailer hitch.
It really is the worst browser I’ve used since MOSAIC in 1994(?)
Congrats Google.
Camino or OmniWeb not to mention Safari blow this away.
But I should say nice job CodeWeavers, and thanks!
Using it right now, it’s certainly an interesting experience. Sure as heck hope the (eventual) OS X native version doesn’t have this ugly Windoze look, though.
As a proof-of-concept, though, it sure seems like a winner to me – great work CodeWeavers!
Non-standard windows. Yuck…!

How exactly?
“They have more shiny buttons and options” doesn’t cut it.
Do you have any problems with the implementation of Google’s STATED GOALS for the browser?
Why fool with this stuff? Just get Firefox.
Whether you like the Chrome browser or not, you have to admit CodeWeavers is doing some innovative work!
I love CrossOver, a Windows emulator, from them.
