Any Pixelbook users out there? Worth the premium? Did you pay the extra $650 to get the extra 8GB RAM?
I have so many Chromebooks because of their secure OS design but also because they are so darn cheap. Pixelbook breaks the latter rule! Pondering...
You could hijack the disk writing interrupt (13h? 21h? One is the BIOS one) and write between the sectors and wheee have otherwise unreadable code lurking! The abstraction is obviously super useful, but the materiality of all this is ... central. Not to be forgotten.
