Google Relaunches Cameyo - so More of Your Favorite Windows Apps Are Coming to ChromeOS
Cameyo by Google streams legacy Windows apps on ChromeOS, closing the app gap and enabling secure enterprise migration with zero ransomware reports, Google said.

- With Android PCs due next year, Google positions ChromeOS to repurpose older Windows 10 PCs and accelerate enterprise migration to modern web productivity suites.
