For developers, meanwhile, it's a new opportunity.

When it comes to connected home security cameras, Logitech hasn't given up on weening you off your Nest addition.

Google could be working on Windows 10 for Pixelbook support, with the Chromebook getting official compatibility with Microsoft OS. Were that the case, it would mean the Pixelbook could ship with Windows 10 preinstalled, just as notebooks from Lenovo, Acer, and others do.
