AirPods Pro 3 | Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge It’s been a while since we’ve seen a good discount on the Apple AirPods Pro 3, but like the latest iPad Mini and the M5 MacBook Airs, a great one is happening now for October Prime Day.

Google didn't even call the first Chromebook a "Chromebook." The Cr-48 had no interesting design and no bright logos - it wasn't even designed to be a product you could buy. Instead, it was a portal to a big new idea about computers. In this week's episode of Version History, The Verge's Nilay Patel and MKBHD's Marques Brownlee join David Pierce to help explain the history of ChromeOS and Chromebooks, and discuss whether Google's approach to computer hardware was the right one.
