Google's $899 Googlebook is a bet you'll buy a laptop for Gemini

Google has launched the Googlebook, an $899 laptop built around its Gemini AI assistant, betting that buyers will pay for new hardware to get the full Gemini experience. The machine joins a crowded premium laptop market where Google's Chromebooks have traditionally competed on price rather than on AI features. Google has not said how many units it expects to sell or how the Gemini integration differs from the version already running in its apps.
