Google announced its list of Chrome OS partners -- companies that will build netbooks, laptops and possibly desktops that run the Chrome OS -- in a blog post today, including Acer, Adobe, ASUS, Freescale, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments.

Google names Chrome OS partners; leaves Dell, Sony and Toshiba
COGADGET —
... Acer and Asus.
The surprising thing in the list is it does not feature other prominent companies like Intel, AMD, Dell, Sony, Toshiba among others. Google has mentioned that the list is partial so we think it will join other partners in future. It is interesting to see Adobe and Texas Instruments in the Google partners’ list. With Adobe we think Chrome OS might feature some good flash based applications. Stay tuned for further developments on Google Chrome OS.

Google FAQ Reveals Chrome OS Hardware Partners
Wired: Gadget Lab —
... inside.
This looks to us like the Goog is getting serious about compatiblity issues, as well as teeing-up some partnerships to make sure its new OS actually arrives on some computers. It isn’t the same desperate situation as that of Android, where almost no handsets are available more than a year after the OS was revealed. For phones, you need to convince a carrier to load up the OS. With Chrome, us nerds at least will be able to download and install it ourselves.
