I thought this was a big rumor for a few days that ended up getting extinguished by a Google exec.

Yeah. But then they build devices like the Pixel C, which were clearly supposed to be Chrombooks[1] and they have both groups reporting to the same managers.

So.. read the actions.

The Pixel C is a tablet with an optional keyboard available, so if it was (as it clearly seems) planned to be a ChromeOS device, it was a third form factor from the existing Chromebooks and Chromeboxes.

But making a decision not to expand ChromeOS devices to include "Chromeslates" is not the same thing as killing Chromebooks.
