The desktop after you boot

You get a familiar menu from the first login: categories on the left, apps on the right, search at the top. Office, browser, Craft, and the open creative tools sit ready without hunting through stores. Application write-ups are shared with the PC channel - each program that ships on both shows Available in for 64-Bit and Chromebook-Fennel 14. Wine stays on the PC ISO; Steam on this Chromebook installs from the menu helper made for it.
