I was really impressed with the
video featured on the
News Picks showing multitasking
with Chrome OS and Linux on the Chromebook
Pixel. This is a
machine I want! I am willing to pay the price for the
Chromebook Pixel. It looks so useful. I wonder if Google or
Samsung might sell
a Chromebook pre-configured to multitask
with Linux and ready to go?
In
spite of the fact that I have been developing on
Windows since 3.1, I have
vowed that I will never step down
to Windows 8. I'm sure I can make some cool
stuff with
Linux, only I would like to know what developers use for
C++.
Can someone tell me if there is a nice integrated
IDE/debugger
for C++ on Linux? I was imagining perhaps there
may be a version of Eclipse for
that one could combined with
QT for a very productive environment. Who knows
there may be
a market for apps spring up if Chromebook w/Linux gains in
popularity? [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I have a couple of Asus computers, that had a separate power
button, for a quick boot OS that was Linux, but with someone
elses name on it for whatever company was producing the
laptop. (from memory, Splashtop I think is Asus's)
They no longer have it on their systems. The ONLY real issue
I had with it, was it was NOT upgradeable (security issues,
later edition, etc). The first system they did have one
update, that required a flash update (SOC type of setup), but
heard enough horror stories with it, I skipped it).
Is Chrome OS, fixed, or does it get patches, etc?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
