Jme621 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Also, windows server 2008 R2 works great on it after installing Luigi to flash the firmware. didnt even give the os a day :no: , this is why promotions like this are few and far between, people dont use it the way they said they would when they applied and the companies decide to quit doing them. /rant Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/959472-official-cr-48-chromeos-laptop-shipment-tracking/page/42/#findComment-593676874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleNeutrino Veteran Posted February 8, 2011 Veteran Share Posted February 8, 2011 Anyone know if there is a way to change the shipping address if you have not received one yet. I just moved over the weekend and if i have a chance of getting one I would like it to come to the correct address Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/959472-official-cr-48-chromeos-laptop-shipment-tracking/page/42/#findComment-593676876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanshin Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Sigh... all you lucky people getting your Cr-48s... I still have this vision in my head of mine somewhere in our yard buried in the snow and we won't be able to find it until it all melts. And for anybody interested, the tracker is definitely gone now and is replaced by a pretty GoDaddy page (cringe...)

Code.Red Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Ahh, I had given up hope on this forever. And they are shipping some more out, now? I don't wanna know I don't wanna know I don't wanna know I don't wanna know!

Tanshin Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Well the good news is there's no way to know now since the tracker (and domain name for that matter) no longer exist.

devi59 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 didnt even give the os a day :no: , this is why promotions like this are few and far between, people dont use it the way they said they would when they applied and the companies decide to quit doing them. /rant ....I have been posting this quite often today.... I installed it as a "look what's possible, let's see what it can take" thing. I also plan on installing Mac OSX and different version of linux on it at some point as well. Also, great thing about this device is you can flash the firmware back and it will automagically rebuild itself back to stock, even with the harddrive wiped. Wish I could see that on more laptops I work on.

Tanshin Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 You know... that whole spam incident was quite helpful when you think about it. I was so worried that my address was wrong or something, thanks to the tracker, but since my mailbox wasn't spammed I suppose that means that I just never got one. Of course, it's also possible that the tracker was picking up a package that wasn't a notebook. Perhaps that's why it was shut down...

dmb219 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I finally got mine today. :D Anyone tried the development channel? I got mine a week or so ago and it is nice. Everything I need when I'm away is available via internet, so nothing but the web is ok with me. I've not done any hacking or modding, not sure I will since it does all I need already (but I'll be reading up on it).
