Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols reports that an unofficial build of Chrome OS is available for Dell's Mini 10v. "The Mini 10v is, as you might have guessed, one of Dell's PCs that already comes with Ubuntu as an option, but this is a very experimental release [of Chrome OS]. Still, as a USB-based distribution, it can't harm your 10v - if something goes wrong or it doesn't work you just remove the USB drive and reboot - so it's worth playing with if you like experimenting with Linux's newest bleeding-edge distribution."
