Schmidt did not set a timetable for a Mac version, saying it had to be rebuilt from the ground up because of the fundamental differences between the Mac OS and Windows. Google released a Windows version of the desktop tool earlier this month. The software lets users search email, files, web history, and chats. It also allows users to view web pages they've seen, even after disconnecting from the internet.
