![]() Test secure pages, JavaScript and general look and feel, without having to set up multiple virtual machines or using slow VNC connections. Run IE6, IE7 and IE8 alongside each other and clearly see the different behaviors and functionality of a webpage. Test any site by using real standalone browsers or using screenshot browser images (similar to but higher reliability and quality). Traditional Screenshot testing with the widest range of web browsers available today. Mobile Browsers and emulators, including Android, iPhone and iPad 4. Real standalone browsers run from a single exe - no install required 3. Automated Browser tests on your local machine with no configuration required. I guess you can already kind of get around this by just keeping Windows 10 in tablet mode all the time, but something just feels a little wrong about this (to me).Multi-Browser Viewer is the first true cross-browser compatibility testing software package. The thing that would keep something like this from getting any traction of course is the same thing as before…the mobile App Gap. Almost all store apps are already perfectly suitable for a 7-10" touch screen, and I'm sure it would not be too hard to scale up Windows Mobile just a bit. I think full windows on tablets a-la the surface line are just fine and should continue indefinitely, but I would not be at all opposed to them ALSO ALSO ALSO selling a nice Microsoft tablet running good-old Windows Mobile (In fact, a few of these WinMo-only tablets were acually prototyped and showed off at conventions by some OEMs a few years ago, then sadly disappeared). IMO this is a good move as to not do so would be suicide, given that everything is heading towards "easier" computing for the end user. Remember that Paul often laments that Microsoft's current vision seems to be to slowly evolve Windows into mobile again, kind of searching for the back door to mobile as they had the front one all but slammed in their face. In reply to FalseAgent:I get what you mean, but disagree in that I feel both of the computing routes you describe are perfectly valid. My guess is that we’ll see non-education Chromebook tablets, including a Google Pixel-branded device, later in 2018. The Acer Chromebook Tab 10 begins shipping in April. “The new Acer Chromebook Tab 10 encourages students to discover new ways of understanding the world around them.” “The Acer Chromebook Tab 10 combines advances in hardware and application support to enable more meaningful learning for an even wider range of K-12 students,” says Acer general manager James Lin. ![]() ![]() It provides 9 hours of battery life, Acer says, and will cost $329 in the U.S. While it’s hard to know the order in which these things happened, the ability to use Chromebooks in tablet form would obviously be semi-pointless without the addition of Android app support and the Google Play Store.Īs for the device itself, the Acer Chromebook Tab 10 provides A 9.7-inch IPS display running at 2048 x 1536 (QXGA), and it supports a Wacom EMR stylus for writing and drawing. “We’ve listened carefully to feedback from educators around the world, and one common theme is that they want all the benefits of Chromebooks in a tablet form.” “Schools choose Chromebooks because they are fast, easy-to-use and manage, shareable, secure and affordable,” Google’s Cyrus Mistry explains. And the first Chrome-based tablet, the Acer Chromebook Tab 10, will soon become available to education customers. Google announced today what many have suspected since the Pixelbook release: It will now rely on Chrome OS, and not Android, for its tablets efforts.
