    “The Taiwanese site has an extremely mixed record when it comes to product prognostications and predictions”

    Which means BGR also “has an extremely mixed record when it comes to product prognostications and predictions”. Why parrot a source that you know sucks?

      BGR purpose is to fill the masses with tech news. Pointing at another source takes the credibility off your shoulders. We do it every day as humans. True or fales, is Chrome Os really needed? Google can very well piggy back off of Android for tablets and go as far as the Android handset have gone. Or maybe…..Android for touch and Chrome for non touch? In that case i have to get both!!

    Not selling through retail channels? Where are they going to sell it? Google Stores? Oh yeah, they haven’t copied those yet.
