This along with the $1,500 glasses is absurd. Google is going off the deep end with this stuff.

just the design though the pixel looks sleek. i hope they release cheaper versions at some point. i will cop

No way in hell is the Pixel worth that much.

Nah the glasses I can understand. That's next level shyt even if it's just a toy purchase

But not some underspecced overpriced web browser

This laptop was made for the Google executives to use when they're on the go. Anyone who buys this over a lenovo or a macbook is an idiot

How many apps do you have breh?

About 120. That includes all of the stock apps etc. I have music on there as well so I'm considering just moving that to the SD card if its easier .

chromebook pixel shytting on the mac book

I brought my Pixel out into the world today, did a little offline demonstration and found that some things just work better than on a "heavier" Mac OS. I am supposed to be on vacation this week entertaining my nephews who flew down to get away from their Mom and Step Dad for a while. The oldest (17 years old) was disappointed that I had taken time off, at first I thought he just wanted the run of my house to play video games, but in reality he wanted to see what I do for living. I have one of the best jobs in world (not perfect,) I get to solve problems and talk technology for a living, and they pay me for it. So I offered to do a presentation that one of the reps had wanted me to do, to one of our technology partners NetApp, as long as I can take my nephew.

Making a short story long, I took my Pixel, I pulled down the presentation I was going to work from at home, got to the NetApp Office early noticed a few changes that needed to made aesthetically and content wise to my presentation, but Uh-oh I didn't have access to a Wi-Fi Signal, whatever was I to do with this now useless Chromebook? What I did was make the edits in Google Slides. I was shown the podium, hooked up my mini-display port, and ran the slide deck in presenter mode, with ease. Outside of few edits (that I would have had to make if I was moving the presentation from different versions of PowerPoint), it rendered beautifully. I even got brave and plugged in my Kensington remote presenter, the Pixel took it and worked with it to advance the slides without issue. My colleague sporting his Mac Book Pro, when it was his turn to present, asked if he could use my remote presenter, we plugged it in and nothing it didn't just work, he ended up having to advance the slides manually at the keyboard.

I was so pleased my Pixel passed its first BYOD work trial with flying colors, now I need to stop working on my day off.
