[Behind the Blue Wall]

I bought a Chromebox a month or so ago, but so far I’ve only used it as intended, running the Chrome browser, and seeing how much of my computing I can get done “in the cloud”. So far, I’ve been able to do pretty much everything I need to do, but that also includes remotely accessing my work network, which includes all of the Microsoft productivity apps. At some point down the road, I’ll probably play around with loading a Linux distro on it to see how it would work. But even as intended, it’s a cheap, fast computer that can do 95% of what most people do on their home computers these days, and even work computers, to the extent that cloud computing is taking over the workplace.

Thanks for the report from the real word of getting acquainted with this new way of functioning and with a new non X86 hardware.

This action is moving forward at a pretty rapid pace and I think there will be holes in stuff we know should work,....but things have to be done yet to get it to work.

You DO NOT move a binary BLOB from the X86 world to the ARM instruction set with out somebody doing some work....

In my old job many years ago,,,,we had a work out moving costumers from one OS to a higher level one on the SAME DAMN MACHINE..
