[Official] CR-48 ChromeOS Laptop Shipment-Tracking


Recommended Posts

I got mine it pretty cool...

My girl friend opened it and signed in with my stuff as the owner which is cool with me and she took the photo. Turns out after a hour searching for a option to change the picture over various sessions I emailed Google Ninja ChromeOS Support (not joking) and I got a reply in a few hours confirming that I cant change the picture. Of course I replied that its a simple feature , yada yada yada. Not that big of a deal but its a bummer. If you skip the picture setup you can not add a picture later as well.

Rep said it might come later...

Other then that its cool as it was free and its serves it purpose well, love the feel over the rubber matte finish everywhere. Need to see later builds of it to pass judgment but the device is interesting.

Thanks for the cool laptop Google!

** EDIT **

In the replay I also asked Google rep if there is a way to reset / remove the owner user.

sweet... there is one coming to my city, and being where i live i should have a very big chance at it

Edit: BTW Thanks Code.Red for the list

Well, so far there has only been one shipped to my city (the capital city of my state, no less!), and it was delivered at about the same time I saw this thread and applied for one. I'm hoping to maybe get one in one of the next couple of batches. Two things I've noticed though: 1. there seem to be a LOT of them going to Jacksonville, FL (kept seeing them when searching those pastie pages for my city, Jackson, MS). 2. those lists on pastie chew up a hell of a lot of RAM, they nearly lock up IE on my Dell Mini 10!!

So if I am understanding this right so far out of the 3 batches sent out so far (that have been posted on pastie) only an estimated 6000 netbooks have been sent out, out of the 60,000 that were made in production?

what does ! in front of your city mean?? on the pastie links thing

i.e.

(!) SHREWSBURY, MA, US

not my city just an example

It means that the address had an issue with shipping I guess. Hoping that UPS fixes the issues with that address.

I believe that means that they're getting ready to be shipped out in the next batch

Edit: Nevermind, that only applies to my city, must be a coincidence

That just means that it hasn't been successfully delivered at the time that the list was generated. For example, if it hasn't been shipped, if it's enroute, or if there was a delivery exception (e.g. address doesn't exist), there will be a (!).

Trying to get one using all possible sorts of combinations, filling in BELGIUM (EUROPE) in state et cetera :p It worked with Microsoft before, actually received stuff that was meant to be US only, now let's hope Google doesn't manually check these ^^

    • Good, because the nonstop chattering from the voices in her head made me quit the second game.
    • This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case by Sayan Sen At Computex 2026 earlier this month, AMD announced a couple of new X3D processors for both sockets AM4 and AM5 as it confirmed the support extension of the latter till 2029. And although Intel didn't unveil any new desktop chips, the company's Core Ultra 200S Plus series is relatively new too. Let's say though that you want the best of both worlds simultaneously, and instead of running two different systems, you can have both running together side-by-side, or rather on top of one another. That's exactly what Thermaltake's CAPO X dual system is made for doing. While it's not exactly mandatory to run AMD with Intel, or vice versa, you get the idea. As you can see in the render above, it is essentially like a double-decker PC case that is capable of holding two microATX (mATX) motherboards. Even running just one discrete graphics card in a PC can get toasty, so you may be wondering how well the cooling is designed on the CAPO X, Thermaltake has confirmed, as is evident from the marketing promo image above, that the case supports up to two 360 mm AIO liquid coolers. 420mm is not supported. In total there is room for 13 120mm case fans. In terms of I/O (input/output) options for the two systems, there are naturally two places for those ports, one at the top and one at the very bottom of the chassis in the front panel. In terms of use cases, there are many possibilities. Thermaltake itself, for example, highlights how one system can be your main PC while the other could be the AI agent PC. Another example given is how it can be used to stream and game simultaneously with dedicated systems instead of hogging one with the entire load. Nothing regarding pricing or availability was said.

    • There might be some passive design improvements (cooling, etc), but I doubt they'd change the core performance spec of the hardware mid-generation when they've already got a new console in development.
    • State of Decay 3 is out in 2027, reveals Plague Nests with new co-op gameplay trailer by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A few months ago, Undead Labs broke its silence about the third entry in the State of Decay series since its announcement in 2020. Today, the studio had a brand-new trailer to reveal at the Xbox Games Showcase, finally giving players a look at the Unreal Engine 5-powered title. A broad 2027 release window is now attached to State of Decay 3 too. The studio confirmed that every scene seen in the gameplay trailer (except for the studio logo) released today is from the game with no cinematic footage. "The quality bar of the moment-to-moment experience is higher than anything we’ve achieved in Undead Labs’ history," says the studio. "State of Decay 3 is being built in Unreal Engine 5, and we’re creating better quality versions of what makes our game the survival sandbox it is, and the combat experience is really, really important to us, and I think you can see it coming through in this trailer." One new aspect of this upcoming entry is the Plague Nests. These are supposed to be dynamic, dungeon‑like enemy hubs with varied “personas” that change tactics each time one appears on a map. These areas will have the best loot in the game for players brave enough to tackle them. The combat system is being overhauled too, letting players do quick and power attacks depending on the situation. This isn't just on the player's side though, as zombies themselves now have multiple new types of behaviors depending on how fresh or decayed they are. "All of these play very differently, especially as you start getting outnumbered or when you’re making noise and running around and trying to save your rear end or the rear end of your friend next to you," adds the developer. Of course, settlement building and community management are massive parts of this third entry too. These are being further expanded with the cooperative focus, giving players much more freedom for playing together than in State of Decay 2. Players will even be able to split up and build settlements in different areas of the same map with different goals. Undead Labs confirmed that playtests are already ongoing for the title, and interested players can sign up to participate by heading over here once more slots open up ahead of the full release. State of Decay 3 is coming out on PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Game Pass sometime in 2027.
