I think Google can get away with it for two reasons:
1) Nobody is claiming that Google has a monopoly position, or that they
are abusing that position in order to stifle competition.
2) Nobody is claiming that Chrome OS will be suitable for the masses,
but instead it is targeted at a very specific market segment, viz,
netbooks. Netbooks themselves are ideal for running Web applications
and little else, so it actually makes sense there.
