Has anyone been able to figure out how to install Windows OS onto the Pixel Slate? I haven't been able to find any news on this subject as of recent. The Pixel Slate would be on another level with an OS as dynamic as Windows being that most applications are created for that OS. Don't get me wrong, Chrome OS is great, but an operating system is only as good as it's compatible applications. I've used both and I know what both are capable of. I prefer the everything about chrome OS other than its lack of compatible applications and with Windows OS installed, it would make my Slate to the next level.
