[Official] CR-48 ChromeOS Laptop Shipment-Tracking


Recommended Posts

Also, windows server 2008 R2 works great on it after installing Luigi to flash the firmware.

didnt even give the os a day :no: , this is why promotions like this are few and far between, people dont use it the way they said they would when they applied and the companies decide to quit doing them.

/rant

Anyone know if there is a way to change the shipping address if you have not received one yet. I just moved over the weekend and if i have a chance of getting one I would like it to come to the correct address

Sigh... all you lucky people getting your Cr-48s... I still have this vision in my head of mine somewhere in our yard buried in the snow and we won't be able to find it until it all melts.

And for anybody interested, the tracker is definitely gone now and is replaced by a pretty GoDaddy page (cringe...)

....I have been posting this quite often today....

I installed it as a "look what's possible, let's see what it can take" thing. I also plan on installing Mac OSX and different version of linux on it at some point as well. Also, great thing about this device is you can flash the firmware back and it will automagically rebuild itself back to stock, even with the harddrive wiped. Wish I could see that on more laptops I work on.

You know... that whole spam incident was quite helpful when you think about it. I was so worried that my address was wrong or something, thanks to the tracker, but since my mailbox wasn't spammed I suppose that means that I just never got one.

Of course, it's also possible that the tracker was picking up a package that wasn't a notebook. Perhaps that's why it was shut down...

Typing this from my new cr48 notebook! UPS guy arrived around 4 this afternoon...been playing with it ever since, and I have to admit...it's quite nice!

:cool:

I finally got mine today. :D

Anyone tried the development channel?

I got mine a week or so ago and it is nice. Everything I need when I'm away is available via internet, so nothing but the web is ok with me. I've not done any hacking or modding, not sure I will since it does all I need already (but I'll be reading up on it).

  • 2 weeks later...

Question any one here not get a Cr-48 that got got the mass emails about the Cr-48 group? I did and got in contact with a ninja 11 days ago and she said my info was sent to shipping yet I have not gotten it... Either Shipping is backed up or they only ship so many perday/week.... If any one else was in this same situation were they were in contact with a ninja but received yours. how long was your wait?

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
