While dozens of manufacturers will gladly slap an Intel, Microsoft, or NVIDIA advertisement on the palmrest of your brand new laptop, Google knows better than to partake in this annoying practice.
Instead, it ships its Cr Chrome laptop as a sticker-free slab of matte black stealth. At least it did. Now, don't worry, Google hasn't succumbed to the temptation to advertise ironically -- it's simply bundling this swank skin and a decal set with new Cr shipments. My mistake. Another batch of will go out Monday. Has anybody heard a total number yet? Heard a rumor of 60k. But I cannot back it up with any data or the source. Heard the same thing, but yeah, it's a rumor, of course.
One's headed to my zipcode. That's interesting because ours is a smallish town. However, there are quite a few IT people around where both me and my wife works. Hopefully I'll find out early next week. None explicitly for my zipcode, but one to Hollywood CA with no zip listed, which is my zipcode. Well, we'll wait and see, won't we?
KleinmanB on Dec 12, parent next [—]. Me too, may the best man win. Same here. I was looking to see if anyone had noticed that there was no zip code I'm in '' in HW specified for Hollywood. Wondering if there was anything specific that you guys specified on your app? My girlfriend is worried about how google is going to own her soul with all the tracking if she ends up getting one. I just checked the list and found out I'm not getting one.
Does anyone know how many are being shipped out in total? Anman on Dec 12, prev next [—]. I called. I didn't get it but they did give out the address and name of the person it's going to. That's worrying. ConceptDog on Dec 12, prev next [—]. Just from I'm from Canada they think I'm slow, eh. Yet another reason why you should move to SF.
Or Lake Wobegon. Since Lake Wobegon got left off the map, it might be hard to move there or get your Cr delivered :. Anyone care to guess or know? How do you do that? I've just looked again on UPS customer tracking pages and their developer API pages and can't find any such search functionality. Two comming to Stanford No one in my zip code is getting one.
Hope the DB is wrong ;. My Zipcode is in there but I live near a University. Hopefully not the same university as me. Where are these packages being shipped from? That would be cool, seeing as one is headed to my ZIP and I'm a 45 minute drive from the louisville ups hub GrandMasterBirt on Dec 12, prev next [—]. I have to say, Im really waiting for that laptop to be useful.
At the moment is a tiny step up in performance from my shitty non-ssd ubuntu netbook. RtodaAV on Dec 12, prev next [—]. GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RtodaAV on Dec 12, parent next [—]. Sorry I mean it will be delivered on the 15th. Despite the prerequisite of caring about the web on this site, I wish someone had explained what the Hell any of this meant. It's apparently the Chrome netbook Google is putting out. And it seems they're giving away 5, for free to random addresses?
This should be a news story, not a guessing game. I'd guess far more than 5, at the rate they are going. I wonder how much they have spent so for what is basically an alpha test So what if you don't like how I said it? Tell me I'm wrong about the original post, then tell me you're not lying to yourself. The link is cryptic, and to assume prerequisite knowledge of a non-headline event of the day is absurd.
Toucan on Dec 12, root parent [—]. What degree of knowledge should be assumed? There's plenty on HN that I don't understand but I'm yet to come across anything that 30 seconds with Google couldn't explain. Events Innovation Festival. Follow us:. By Austin Carr 1 minute Read.
