Acer debuts education-minded Aspire One E100 with Android and Windows

On January 26, 2011, In Gadgets, by Lobo

Acer’s been doing the dual-boot , Android / Windows thing on some of its netbooks for a little while now, but it looks to be branching out into a bit of new territory with its new Aspire One E100 model. It’s more or less the same as the D255 , but Acer is pitching this one directly at the education market, and it’s added some things like a special rubber coating and the potential for school branding — not to mention a slew of pre-installed education software — to make it a bit more attractive to schools and students alike. Otherwise, you can expect the usual 10.1-inch display, an unspecified Atom processor, 1GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive, and a promised eight hours of battery life

Google: Chrome OS laptops won’t dual boot with Windows, live customer support for Cr-48 owners

On December 8, 2010, In Gadgets, by Lobo

We know there’s a lot to digest after Google’s Chrome OS event today , but following the shindig we caught a few minutes with Google VP of Product Management Sundar Pichai. While he wouldn’t answer our questions about upcoming Chrome OS laptops — you know, the ones coming from partners such as Acer and Samsung in mid-2011 — he did tell us that those Atom-powered laptops won’t dual boot Windows. In fact, he told us that “certified” Chrome OS laptops won’t support dual boot environments at all.

ViewSonic 10-inch dual boot ViewPad preview

On September 2, 2010, In Gadgets, by Lobo

ViewSonic hasn’t settled on a name for this thing yet, vacillating between the ViewPad 100 and the ViewPad 10i. What it has settled on is a pretty delicious for factor for an Atom N455-based Windows 7 tablet, and the dual boot option to Android is really just gravy.

Nokia N900 Maemo / MeeGo dual boot ‘will come at some point,’ but not next firmware

On March 26, 2010, In Gadgets, News, by Lobo

Quim Gil of Nokia’s Maemo team has dropped some knowledge on the folks chatting up the upcoming MeeGo release in the official Maemo forums, and it sounds like there are at least a couple critical points to be aware of for N900 owners and would-be ROM flashers when the first developer preview drops next week. To quote Gil, “nothing beautiful, stable or fully featured” will be a part of that initial release — and to be more blunt about it, “99% of you don’t want to install that release in your N900.” The good news, though, is that Nokia seems to be aware of the importance of a dual-boot solution to MeeGo devs working with N900s in the long term, and Gil reports that a proper setup for that “will come at some point” — it’s just not on their short-term radar.
