![Google to rent Chrome OS laptops for $20 per month?](https://cdn.afterdawn.fi/v3/news/600x400/chrome_os_cr48.jpg)
However, the devices will not be sold in a conventional manner, and will instead be sold as a "subscription based model."
The netbooks will be available for $10-20 per month, and Google will replace faulty hardware for the lifetime of the subscription.
Google may also allow you to buy the device for a one-time fee.
It is unclear which manufacturers will create the Chrome OS devices, but Acer and others are expected to have models ready by the summer.
