Ever heard of the game i spy? and with that they are advertising gaming for a Chromebook. This may all just be a coincidence.
While these tech comapnies have people look at the how users might see phrases like "hey guys." Not sure how Google thought people wouldn't do the same to them with this. Chromebook's don't sell as well so this is the worst product to do the worst with for marketing, but at the same time maybe they really do think this and think they can get away with this meme because no one is really buying a Chromebook unless it's like for school work. (although I actually do use my personal Chromebook on the daily i'm in that small minority.)
