If I need to know the exact specs of the processor in the new Pixel laptop, my method of retrieving that information isn't going to be to pull up the 90-minute keynote presentation and skip around to the part where someone on a stage dictates it (or hope that I memorized it when I watched the keynote the first time).

I will just look up that information directly (from the product site's Tech Specs section, or Wikipedia, or one of several other sources).

Faulting a company for not making time during the keynote to include unnecessary, largely irrelevant data is silly. This isn't Intel or NVIDIA unveiling a new microprocessor architecture, it's a consumer product made for browsing the web (which happens to need a CPU/GPU as an implementation detail).

Didn't the latest MBP line have the best sales in MBP history? I get many people were upset by some of the changes (including myself) but that doesn't mean people are migrating in mass.

Also, a chromebook? No developers are migrating to a chromebook. This is targeting the normal user who wants a nice laptop to do normal web surfing and text work.

Well, there's certainly a segment of the developer market who are always on the lookout for a laptop with good hardware which is also well-supported in Linux. Given that ChromeOS is running on the same kernel, I would expect that to be true here, though some Chromebooks are easier than others to directly install Linux onto.

Last I heard new MBS were doing just fine. Do not confuse very local minority with all. And "betrayed"? Apple did not promise anything to anybody.
