Quick Products Update

Hello All,

Just wanted to give you all a quick products update!

First, the Lenovo Chromebook Duet is available to purchase for those interested. As I stated when I first mentioned this product on the blog, if you can live without an SD Card reader of any sort and value portability, this could be the product for you! Feel free to check out video reviews on the web.

Second... It looks like Lenovo has released another Chromebook, The Lenovo Chromebook 3. This is a 14 inch Chromebook with a Celeron processor, 4GB of RAM, and a 32 GB hard drive. It's very similar to the Lenovo Chromebook I have now and that gets the job done as far as my real estate business goes. It has all the necessary ports including a MicroSD Card reader and is only $249 on Lenovo's website... This could be an intriguing value option for real estate professionals who just need a computer that works!

Lastly... it looks like Acer has released various Chromebook 314 Models... one of which has a Pentium Silver with 8 GB of RAM and a 64 GB Hard Drive, which is very intriguing. They also come with all the necessary ports that us Real Estate professionals need including a card reader!

There are more products to come! If you're a real estate professional thinking about making the switch to Chrome OS like I have, now is really the time to start seriously considering it.

As always, thanks for reading!

Until next time,
Dave

P.S. Stay safe and healthy! Please follow local guidelines and regulations regarding COVID-19. Thank you.

Long Time No Update.. so let's talk AMD and Zillow

 Hey All! I know it's been quite a long time since I posted so I just wanted to check in and apologize for not posting in what seems like forever. There is not a lot of news on the Chrome OS front except for one major thing... AMD Ryzen Chromebooks are on the way! I personally prefer AMD processors to Intel processors and AMD's Ryzen processors are the cream of the crop. My Windows laptop (that I hardly use anymore because of how much I prefer using Chrome OS) has an AMD Ryzen 5 processor in it for example. Lenovo and HP have already announced Chromebooks with AMD Ryzen processors on the way and AMD has said that Acer and Asus will also be announcing such devices in the near future. According to benchmarks, the AMD Ryzen processors outperform Intel Core processors, so this is very exciting for us real estate professionals who want better performance in the devices we use to conduct our business. I feel very excited with these developments regarding AMD... Unfortunately I can

A new gem from HP

Hello All, HP has been on a roll lately, now coming out with a new flagship consumer Chromebook, the Chromebook x360 14c. There will be multiple variants of this Chromebook and it will be available both directly from HP and from Best Buy. At minimum, you get a Pentium 6405u processor with 4 GB of RAM and at the high end you get an Intel 10th Gen i5 with 8 GB of RAM. I am not too sure about hard drive specifications but the good news is that it does come with all the necessary ports including a card reader! It is also USI Pen compatible for those who like an e-signature to look like a wet signature. This is a 14" convertible machine with a touchscreen which should be the right mix of business and pleasure for most real estate professionals. By all accounts, the lowest spec Pentium model will start at $499 once it becomes available. I am personally very interested in this one and I may very well get one myself, though I've probably said that before on here and haven

It's Been Months

 Hello All, It's been months since I've written anything on here so I just wanted to check back in. The world of Chrome OS is in a waiting pattern while new technology is slowly churning out onto the market although there are a couple small, but key, developments I want to briefly touch on. First, awhile ago I wrote about Progressive Web Applications on here. Well, at Google I/O (Google's big developer summit for those who don't know) which is happening in a little over a week, they are doing a whole thing about making Progressive Web Applications more native to Chrome OS. This can be a boon for realtors and landlords alike. Imaging having the ability for someone to click on your icon on their home screen to inquire about a property or to pay rent or to put in for a maintenance repair, or anything of that sort without having to open a browser. That is what we are talking about here. This could be a major breakthrough in the real estate space if people utilize it properl
