Google has started selling Chromebook, which is a Samsung "airbook". A laptop made by Samsung, with an 11.6" screen, without an optical drive. I use a similar Windows-based Samsung and it is my favorite photo booth computer because of its small size and good processing.

Any chance that the Breeze family of software will be available to run on that operating system in the future?

Another look at the specs makes this an unlikely choice for a booth. There is no monitor output and only 2 USB ports. So a nice alternative to a tablet but not what we need for booths.

I think it is very unlikely that we will be able to support the Chrome operating system. The Canon and Nikon SDKs needed to control the cameras are only available for Windows and Mac OS X.
