Why on earth did this ever need to be a selling point?

You'll generally see that on products with nothing good to talk about, they'll start listing things you'd just assume.  I've seen it happen with really low-spec cars on price is right.

 

"This brand new ___ includes doors, tires, engine, and 4 speed manual transmission! (windows not included)"

 

:P 

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Half the chromebook systems don't have the play store yet.. 

I was not suggesting it wasn't a selling point, but that it shouldn't have needed to be a selling point. They have had over half a decade to get it sorted.

All chromebooks should have had it so long ago.

The problem is they need to be clear that it has this, as it isn't something that you can assume.

not really, mine was about the announcement of the device, this is about the release 

 

on topic: sound like a great device, read the review on technobuffalo yesterday and it's a pretty decent laptop and the ability to run android apps opens up more door to it. The S-Pen seems to have the same features as on a note device which is awesome. No would i spend 500$ on a chromebook? probably not

One day I will be able to play Monster Hunter Frontier in French/Italian/English on my PC, it's just a matter of time... 4 5 6 7 8 9 years later: It's finally coming!!!

Phones: iPhone 4S/SE | LG V10 | Lumia 920 | Samsung S24 Ultra

Laptops: Macbook Pro 15" (mid-2012) | Compaq Presario V6000

Other: Steam Deck
