I've been pleasantly surprised by the breadth of apps that work on my Chromebook Pixel. Pretty much everything I use on my nexus phone works, albeit some with a small window size.<p>For me, the biggest advantage is the performance boost of android media players, such as Netflix, Hulu, and You Tube.
> “A beta release of the Play store is available to users now on the Acer R11 and Asus Flip (and coming soon to Pixel 2015) and can be enabled from the Settings page,”<p>Not really ...
After Samsung's awful rollout of the Note 7 with battery problems, and the costs of bringing a product to market without enough testing, I have some sympathy for this slow Play on Chrome OS rollout.<p>If there are end user problems running Android apps on a Chromebook, it is better to have a smaller and more manageable test set of users.
