There's nothing wrong with being "stuck " with Edge. It's a fast and excellent browser that keeps getting better all the time. I think these new machines will sell well.
Having said that, I'll stick with my 10" RCA tablet that runs full Windows 10, has a keyboard that turns it into a small laptop, and is surprisingly fast with it's Atom Bay Trail quad core CPU and only 2 GB of RAM. The best part is it only cost $99 brand new.

As a ChromeOS, Windows and Linux user.... Windows S doesn't interest me in the least.
I've downloaded apps from the Windows Store myself, but would find it difficult to survive just on the Windows Store, if not nearly impossible. I also find the quality and functionality of a lot of the apps to be laughable.
By my count, there's at least 6 competing browsers in the Windows Store right now. There's even apps to compete with Office and Outlook.
Chrome OS is a heavily modified (gimped) Ubuntu just like SteamOS....but more capable (at least from what I've read).
Chrome is not, and never was, open source. Chromium is open-source. Chrome is built off of Chromium and contains a lot of "proprietary code"...

Google should release Chrome in the Microsoft store, then you get Chrome apps too lol.
