Google's promising Chromebook "Pixel" was launched to much fun fare but the sales did not match up to the expectations. Chance of the company putting an end to the lineup, though, is highly unlikely.

According to Cnet, Google's top management has announced that the Chromebooks are not "dead" as of yet. Companies like Samsung and Acer designs many chrome books, but the chrome book "Pixel" is given full advantage of the Chrome OS software, as Google opts to make it in-house. Google, though, has only released two models of the chrome book Pixel, the latest one in 2015. The chrome book Pixel is not found in the Google store and the company has declared that they don't intend to come out with any new stock.

As far as Google is concerned, the company doesn't have any immediate plan to keep their chrome books out of contention as they are committed to laptops using Chrome OS. However, it is being rumored that Google might just shed the name "Pixel" from the Chromebook lineup in future.

According to Business Insider, Rick Osterloh, the Head of Google hardware, said in a recent Press Conference that there are no Google branded laptops available right now. Currently, Google has a number of devices available in the market that are made in collaboration with third party companies. An excellent example is the Samsung Chromebook with Chrome OS.

Osterloh also said that though the Chrome OS is termed a "huge initiative" from the company's point of view, Google has no chrome book coming up very soon. Reportedly, Chrome OS has gained significant market share in the US and the UK. His recent tweets also make it hard to understand the strategy Google is going to adapt with their laptop section.

Google is currently trying to push their Chrome books outside the education sector in which they are quite a big hit. It also plans to incorporate Android app initiative on its new Chromebooks from now on, just like in the case of Chromebook Pro and Chromebook Plus built under the brand name of Samsung. Reportedly, Google also appears to help other device manufacturers come out with Chrome OS-optimized chipsets.
