Google released Android for Intel based ChromeBooks. AND CrossOver for Android installed and ran on a Google ChromeBook. More importantly, we were able to install the Steam Client into CrossOver for Android and run LIMBO and other games. MORE IMPORTANTLY, we have DirectX 9 support, keyboard support, mouse support, and sound support TODAY!!! PEOPLE, we are staring at a Leprechaun riding on the back of a Unicorn while taking a picture of a UFO. We are running CrossOver through Android on a ChromeBook running a Windows based game launched from the Steam client. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE…EVER!!!

The game seems to run pretty smoothly in this video.

This is good news for students who use a Chromebook at school, and workers who use Chromebooks at work. Now students and workers can play some Steam games like Limbo at school or work by using CrossOver to run the Steam Client.

I wonder would it be possible to install games from Steam onto a SD card, or a USB external hard drive because most Chromebooks only have 16-32GB of flash or SSD storage.
 
Sounds nice!
