Chromebooks run on ChromeOS, a streamlined operating system that integrates with Google Drive, making it easy to navigate to apps like Google Docs, Google Drive, and Gmail so you can stay on task and in touch with te

Think of this as a touchscreen clamshell laptop with a fancy hinge. The flexibility

Previously, the company had said it would use the technology to zero out its climate
