ChromeOS gets better multitasking and Wi-Fi traffic prioritization


The latest ChromeOS has some nice tricks up its sleeve.

The latest version of ChromeOS (M124) is out with a couple of nice upgrades, including faster split screen setup and a new web traffic prioritization feature. The idea, much like the QoS feature of routers, is that your Chromebook will prioritize things like video calls and online games when your Wi-Fi network is congested. In the category of “things nobody asked for,” ChromeOS now supports carrier locking — so wireless companies can sell you a Chromebook that you can only use with their service.
