Linux Users

Yes, people, I’ve seen many many requests about google chrome for Mac. Now, if you guys wanna try Chrome for Mac ahead of the official release, you can try crossover chromium for Mac.

What is CrossOver Chromium

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. This is based on WINE software which lets Mac and Linux users run windows applications on their computers.

Some Facts

Even though it’s nice to experience Chrome browser on Mac before the official release, you should not use CrossOver Chromium as your primary browser, since it’s not the final product, and it’s not a native application. They used a Dev build of the actual chromium package to build this, thus is incomplete.

Okay, I’m Ready, Give me the Link

If you are ready to install Crossover Chromium, here is the download information.
