Google may bring Windows 10 support to multiple Chromebooks
You might not have to splurge on a Pixelbook if you're pining after a Chromebook with Windows 10 support. XDA-Developers has learned through source code that Campfire, the feature that would let Chrome OS dual-boot Windows 10, would be available in multiple "variants" -- that is, on more than one Chrome OS device. This wouldn't mean that any and all Google-powered PCs would have the option. Hardware makers would have to verify that Windows worked properly, and it'd be out of the question for the many Chrome machines that only have a small amount of flash storage. Recent code comments suggest you'd need at least 40GB of space, and many Chromebooks have 32GB or less.
Acer ups the Altos easyStore SOHO NAS to 3TB
Acer's been pretty low-key with its SOHO-targeted Altos easyStore NAS offerings, but it's not just letting it wither away either, upping the capacity today to a max of 3TB. The black four-drive tower features a web interface to disk options like RAID levels and automatic backup schedules, and Acer bundles in a bootable CD that allows you to restore from catastrophic system failures. It's not clear when the 3TB easyStore is going to make it out, but the 2TB version has been available for large discounts and garnering decent reviews since August, so you may want to start poking around if you're looking to jump aboard the NAS train.
