For a good experience running Android apps on ChromeOS you really need an ARM CPU and a decent amount of RAM (12 or 16).

The story they lead their marketing with ends:

“Cool! Now this will be with me wherever I go.”

So the next question is obviously:

"Will it? Forever? What are you doing to ensure that?"

Because most consumer startups fail. The ones that get bought out usually end up sunset or neglected. Even the ones that IPO often alienate users by chasing quarterly earnings (evernote/dropbox/pinterest).

Last time I saw something like this they were getting additional revenue by charging people to be crew.

An important detail that none of the reporting I've seen has mentioned: Tesla got upwards of $750 million in subsidies from the state of NY for putting the Gigafactory 2 in Buffalo.

The condition was that they had to support 1460 jobs. Last I heard they were around 1500, so it's reasonable to believe the analyst jobs are only located there to avoid paying fines for breach of contract with NYS.

It could be interpreted as him owning 100 gigs of RAM across all his devices.

I'd estimate I'm around 50-60, so I'm sure plenty of HNers are over 100 total?
