As a heavy-duty Chromebook user, it made sense for me to get the LTE version of the Pixel. Another tech writer did the same but had issues getting a signal inside a Starbucks: even Wi-Fi was out of commission. But the Chromebook isn’t a “brick” as the author suggests; you have to understand how to use a Chromebook and its admittedly limited offline capabilities.
We also found code suggesting that an Nvidia Tegra 4 could power a new Chromebook and offer up some new apps for editing text and code.
