I guess it will be running Google's new operating system (a "modern OS designed for Intelligence") that combines elements of Android and ChromeOS.

Edit: Probably Android at the core, and then a desktop-grade Chrome browser on top.

Yeah, this is the one. Android in a desktop form-factor.

Wouldn't it be Fuchsia?

That’s what I don’t get about this product.

I’ll be blunt and say this looks like a rebrand of ChromeOS with a normal keyboard and AI slapped in it.

Chromebooks are associated with low quality garbage that people only buy if they’re desperate.

I don’t think this product will be successful. Someone buying a laptop at all needs more compatibility than Google’s OSes offer. Even with Android apps, those are all really shoved in haphazardly.

Why am I buying this when I can get a MacBook for $499?

maybe Fuchsia?
