Chrome OS is just a browser, so any HTML5 capable browser should have access to the same apps that chrome does.

Chrome just makes it a bit easier to discover apps by way of the chrome web store, and Chrome OS forces users to operate exclusively on the web as the only accessible userland app is -- Chrome.
Hmm... It is open source, and Hexxeh has compiled it for the iPad, which AFAIK has an ARM processor, so it should be possible...I am not quite knowledgeable to attempt that though.
