I hope they plan on having a port of Chrome Remote Desktop from the Chrome Web Store if they do drop support outside Chrome OS (from what it sounds like). I still use that on a regular basis between my android phone, Linux machine, and windows desktop.

I use Chrome Remote Desktop almost daily. It's a really nice solution when you are locked behind firewalls.

Isn't Hangouts a Chrome app? I wonder if they are going to make a native Windows app.

Another Chrome Remote Desktop user here. I used to use Live Mesh Remote Desktop back when that was a thing and I really don't fancy having to move to yet another remote desktop service, especially the subscription based ones (plus I'm broke, so...)

What about Chromecast? Will this this work?

True, I didn't think of that one either. I guess I'll need to get Miracast working on a Roku Stick and toss the Chromecast if they do drop it.

They need to dump Chrome OS all together and make a unified Android OS
