One of the biggest stories out of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit in Maui isn’t just about Qualcomm — it’s how Google is finally merging Android and ChromeOS to create a new operating system for computers. Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon revealed that it’s finally happening, and now, a Google exec has revealed when it’s happening, too.
It’s “something we’re super excited about for next year,” said Google’s Sameer Samat, head of Android Ecosystem, at the tail end of Qualcomm’s announcement keynote.

If they think I’m going to purchase a computer that will become unsupported between 2-7 years from now and refuse to install the software I want to install, they’re insane.
Chromebooks currently have a 10 year support duration, that’s on par with windows and mac.
