The Google I / O developer conference, which is taking place these days, is bringing us news almost every day. Apart from the news that was announced on the day of the presentation, the company continues to report on the new features of its different operating systems. The last one is related to Chromebooks and the operating system that manages them, ChromeOS. These computers have gradually been displacing the iPad in North American schools, especially because of the difference in price between the two as well as the comfort it offers users by incorporating a physical keyboard. These little laptops They can install any application and game from the Play Store, a new function that will open the range of possibilities that this type of notebook has offered us so far.
