Until HP released its popular Chromebase 22 last year, there wasn’t much buzz around ChromeOS AIO (all in one) devices. While Apple has made the iMac for years and there are quite a few options for Windows-based AIO devices (even Microsoft took a swing at the form factor with their first Surface Studio), the ChromeOS […]

Thanks mostly to HP, the Chromebase has made a strong comeback, and the all-in-one Chrome OS desktop presents itself as a solid option for the workplace, consumer kiosks, and home setups alike.

The all-in-one PC form-factor isn’t everyone’s flavor but there’s a lot to be said about a device that requires no add-ons or extra hardware to get up and running. Simply plug it in and you’re off to the races. Chrome OS all-in-one devices, a.k.a. Chromebases, are an even smaller segment of the PC market but […]

With the introduction of Virtual Desks and the ability to move Android and Linux apps between them on Chromebooks, I’ve spent a lot of time attempting to construct the perfect productivity flow on Chrome OS.

Continue ReadingGoogle is finally working on a shortcut customization app for your Chromebook
I’ve heard so many people complain about the ‘Everything button’ not being a caps lock key by default or that they don’t particularly enjoy the way Google has recently stripped the Alt key of its power, and yet, for years, we’ve had little capability to customize the way the Chrome OS keyboard functions.

Continue ReadingA new Chromebase ‘Dooly’ is in development and may come with a rotating screen
The Chromebase isn’t a segment we talk too much about around here. Up to this point, there have only been a few of them to ever actually hit the market and my money is on the fact that you have likely never heard of any of them. The first I had the pleasure of using […]

Every computer has what’s called a serial number. It’s a unique identifier for that exact piece of hardware which can be used to reference everything from its internal components and manufacturing process to identifying you as its owner.
