This is great!!! I wonder if it will be possible to install the Play Store in Chromium OS. I know that Chromium has some support for installing Android .apk files.
Also would love to know if this works. This might eliminate my desire to buy the Android Pixel C device. On the flip side, if this is limited to Chromebooks, this might increase the desire to buy the Chromebook Pixel.
That HP does look enticing and I know it seems small, but I really like the Pixel 2015 having the USB Type-C on each side of the laptop. I can always plug in the cord without having to double back to run it under the laptop based on where the port is. Sometimes the extra foot lets me reach the power socket. (And less stress on the connector).
(Though the lack of upstream kernel support means that I will probably go back to MBPs for my next personal device. I've reverted to just ChromeOS + mosh client for now)
Agreeing with the sibling comment, this does look great!
Know if there's any new Chromebooks like it that are shipping with an LTE chip? I have Project Fi, and would love to have data available wherever I need it.
