It's Saturday, August 26, 2017. Hey, good morning! You look fabulous.  Welcome to the weekend. We’ll take a look back at some of the big stories from earlier this week -- remember the eclipse? -- and some of Friday’s big stories including our review of the Samsung Chromebook Pro.

But the company is going all out this year, using the solar eclipse as an opportunity to reveal that Android O will henceforth be referred to as Oreo. It makes at least a little sense to tie this reveal into the eclipse -- those iconic photos of the solar event are a bit evocative of Oreos, after all. | | But wait, there's more... | |
