Way back in the day I got myself a Chromebook and while I loved it for internet and doing little tasks online it seriously lacked the flexibility of other laptops and everything was done on the cloud. I honestly don't mind doing a majority of my stuff on the cloud but with my line of job I do need some software and programs to run that I can use for coding or just easily accessing my content. These are the major areas my Chromebook lacked in and why I ended up tucking it away.

Fast forwarding now to today Google is introducing a new laptop starting at $999 called the Pixelbook lets take a look at what this new machine has and can do.

It is among most powerful machines. Nice post @bitcoinflood.

It for sure is an upgrade from the old chrome book but then again the price difference is 4 x as well lol The Google OS im curious how many apps etc it has that are useful

Nice sharing..... Cool. Thanks

welcome ...

The most important question:
Does it have a headphone jack?

lol, that is an important one and yes it does after the outrage they got from removing it from their phones it seems like they learned their lesson and included it on this new laptop. The big issue with this laptop really is the limits of the OS it runs on. Awesome hardware but nothing to run...

This machine is a beauty. thanks for the info.

you got it
