Speaking as a "Enterprise" with over 800 Windows PCs deployed to students and teachers. The primary draw of a Chrome device to us has been the cost. The pixelbook does not have that advantage. It will be a very hard sell if the pixel devices end up costing just as much as an equivalent Lenovo ThinkPad. If they can't compete on price anymore they need to make the features at least as good or better. They just are not there yet.
