#3I don't see how this can possibly be an improvement on the first Chromebook Pixel from a design aesthetic point of view but I am hoping to be proven wrong.

#4As someone who has attempted to use the original Chromebook Pixel as a development machine, I'm glad to see they've added more storage options. The original Pixel had 32GB of storage, and this one offers 512GB.
For those unfamiliar with ChromeOS, it allows you to run Linux application using Crouton/chroot, so it really has a lot of potential as a Linux dev machine. However, I ultimately ran out of storage space, and it wasn't worth the time to figure out an inelegant scheme for mounting external storage.

I also don't get it, for that price I can get a nice general purpose laptop, with most likely a much better CPU/GPU combo.

Those that value what the Chromebook offers over what a regular laptop with Linux does.
For many also $1099 is spare change -- at least when considering what computer they can buy.

#9I think they mean “Google Pixelbook is Google’s new Chromebook Pixel”. If Google has discontinued the cheap Chromebooks it would be really bad for all the school systems that rely on them as cheap laptops for students.
