Quick Chrome Update #5: Is that a Chrome Notebook?!

I've been asked a few times at probably the only place you could imagine being asked: A FIRST Robotics competition of course!

I even saw another person with one! Probably the last time that will EVER happen D:

  1. Only one person has asked me about mine, and thats only cause I have the sticker on it. IT's kinda depressing.

  3. If it was a Crapple device the whole world would know about it...

    Anyway, I just discovered something really cool and wanted to share it with the world. The webcam on the Cr-48 doubles as an ambient light sensor. Here's how to test it (it's more visible at indoors at night):

    Sit with a strong light source (like a lamp or the sun) behind you. The webcam will see the light and raise the screen brightness to counter any possible glare.

    Now, move your hand in front of the webcam. The webcam will no longer see the light and think you're in the shade. The screen brightness will lower to save power. Most smartphones do this same thing. It's neat that Google also did this on their notebook.
