 Can it run Android?
 @AdamOutler, I am sure it could if someone put the effort to Port it over
 It might
 @KMyers blast you I'm looking at pixelbooks now
 Worst email request auto response ever.
 @RazPi, Want to try a Chromebook to see if it works for you?
 @KMyers I know I like the form factor of the pixelbook, it's the thinnest next to the MacBook with a good keynoard, the only other concern is my ability to wipe it and put Linux on it natively
 @RazPi, You could but ouch... The matebook may be better suited for that. Of course the keyboard on the Pixel book is by far the best I have ever used
 Oh wow it supports external gpu
 I didn't even know this existed
 Would need to test the keyboard
 See if any of the Microsoft stores carry them online. May be a fun day trip
 Yeah!
 It ticks the right boxes though, i5/i7, nvme, eGPU, and supposedly a good keyboard
 It is also on the thin side as well
 Yes, I wish there was an ultra small model though, I'll need a different backpack
 @RazPi, It is hard to find something that will tick all boxes
 The build quality and thinness of the pixelbook is what was drawing me in
 I'm happy with the form factor of the Mac. I'm just not happy it's a Mac 😭
 Upsetting that they broke Linux installation on it
 I’m happy with my Mac
 And happy with osx
 I spent an 2-3hours on someone’s laptop in the office that was running Ubuntu and needed to use virtual box to test and verify some networking stuff across multiple vms and the host on bridge mode
 Without going to the complexity of it all... it was a nightmare
 I wonder if Google's Alt-OS implementation will allow booting of Linux officially as well as Windows on the Pixelbook. It would in theory allow you to use the eGPU via thunderbolt
 I was extremely surprised as well as I am surely an Ubuntu fan
 Just this was one frustrating occasion
 @ghbd0wn, That should not be too hard to setup but I do understand. We had a policy at work that if I wanted to use anything but Windows, I would need to support myself as I could not go to the desktop support team if something did not work correctly. Fortunately I am pretty good with figuring out things
 This was a mess
 @KMyers, i'm extremely tempted to switch it to dev... but i'm using it as my work machine lately, so don't want to mess it up
 Your it support team is our clients.... we are the it for the it guys
 Joel. Are you at work?
 yes
 Please report to HR
 😂
 fool me once...
 Lol
 @ghbd0wn, I have actually been using ChromeOS as my daily driver. It is pretty much able to run anything I thorw at it
 except kdnlive :-P
 though that might be changing soon
 @Ivoriesablaze, In my defense, it did run and it is not something I use too often.
 haha
 @ghbd0wn, Well that was the first problem. Virtual box is nobody's friend.
 Oh my bad I read that wrong
 I thought it was testing a network from inside virtual box
 @ghbd0wn, Use pfSense in Bridge mode and set up a virtual network.   The rest of the machines should be connected to the virtual network.   I've done something similar before
 I have a virtual network set up now.  pfSense is set to forward port 22, 443, and 80 to a machine in the virtual network.  That machine then distributes Apache vhost requests to the other machines.
 @RazPi - I may go over to Ungergrounds later tonight to get some work done. I think I need a change of venue to focus
 Might join, let me know when you head over
 It will likely be after 6
 @KMyers, What! A fun day trip.... Microsoft store.... Where is Keith!?
 @govatent, Is it a crime to remove Windows and liberate machines?
 I remember when people were jail breaking ios devices when the pdf exploit was around
 In the stores
 Plug in some usb sticks and turn them on.
 @RazPi - I think I am going to head to Undergrounds in a few minutes to try to beat rush hour traffic
 Ok, I'll come after rush hour I think
 Ok
 Does it end after 6 or 7?
 Around 6
 I have arrived
