The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Has anyone gotten this from Google?

    This is likely for real. Chrome had a Chrome thing going on today, there has also been an ad on all Chrome homepages about beta testing. I think all google users are being offered to try it.

    Perhaps it is legit? The online form says you need to submit by 12/21 (deadline).

    Prolly because you did sign up for further info..you had a different consideration?
