Chrome OS update adds multi-user login support

Googles Chrome OS just got updated to version 37, and it comes with a handful of changes that continue to make the web-based operating system feel more and more like a full-fledged computer. Perhaps most notable is new multi-user management: now, multiple users can be signed in simultaneously, as Google has added a way to switch between them without having to log in and out each time. Its a pretty basic feature that Windows and OS X have had for years, so were glad to see Google wake up and make it easier to share one Chromebook with multiple users. Other changes include an app info view in the Chrome launcher, a settings window that appears as its own window instead of a browser tab, and the ability to save files to Google Drive when youre browsing in incognito mode.
