Today CodeWeavers (makers of the popular “CrossOver Mac” which allows you to run Windows apps on Mac without Windows) released a free CrossOver for Chrom(e/ium)… it is technically “chromium, the open-sourced project for Chrome, but it’s still the same app, I haven’t yet tested it, but this should do for mac users who want to give it a try, see it in a great blog post here, you can download it here, and please comment about what you’re experience is.  It’s also to note that Google will soon release a version of Chrome for mac which will be optimized for both the Mac OS, the Mac OS X graphics interface, and the Mac Hardware.  But give it a try.

[UPDATE Sept 21 10:30 AM] – After many tests, I can determine that this version is very (very, very, very, very) slow. This version isn’t exactly the fastest anyone will ever see Chrome… This should a considdered a conceptual preview-if you want to see it at the best you should test it in a Windows virtual machine, either using VirtualBox, Parallels, VMWare, or on a real Windows PC.
