Google and Samsung ready with new computers

At the CES convention in Las Vegas, Google and Samsung just announced that they again joined forces to create solid, inexpensive portable work computer that will run on Google's operating system and support Android apps.

They will be called Chromebook Plus and Pro Chromebook, and the difference between them is apparently only a faster processor in the Pro version. The screens measuring 12.3 inches and under the hood sits 4GB of RAM and 32GB of memory. There is thus rather talk about work and school computers than the potent gaming machines.

The design is stylish, and the keyboard can be folded behind the screen so the computer can function as a tablet. The screen has touch-sensitive, which makes perfect sense because the computer must be able to operate Android apps, and it also means that follow a pen that makes it easy to write by hand.
