I'm just wondering, with all the recent abandonment by Microsoft of Consumer related products and services, has anyone made the switch to a Chromebook?
In researching it I think Pixelbooks are about the only Chromebook I could stomach. I am a developer and with the recent announcement at Google I/O that they are bringing native Linux emulation to Chrome OS, which gives the ability to run Android Studio on it without dual booting, I think I could survive the switch from a Yoga 900. And I hear Pixelbooks will be the first to be able to emulate Linux natively.
From their advertising Google says the Pixelbook is a "high performance" (i5 or i7) machine. Google Assistant is built right in (so no more abandonware Cortana). Backlit keys. 360 hinge. Touch screen. Active Pen ready. Full true integration with a Google Pixel phone, and instant tethering. Lightweight 2.5 pounds. USB-C. 3:2 aspect ration. $999 for Core i5/8GB/128GB

But has anyone on this site ever used one?
