No, it does not support Windows 10.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Crouton (Google it for more info) will allow you to run Linux and windows programs (WINE) on this and almost any other Chromebook theoretically, however running windows programs is not an easy process and doesn't always work. (Not supported by Google) Also though, containers are rumored to be released mid December which would allow "virtual environments" on a per program basis which would allow you run windows programs as well as Linux.. (Officially supported likely in ChromeOS 63) Another option is CrossOver which "emulates" windows programs. And another option is installing grub2 which could allow you to have as many operating systems as you want that support the hardware but is also the riskiest of all the options. Overall, none of these solutions will fully supplement a native windows installation but one will probably work for you. I would recommend waiting for the official announcement of containers or doing research on any of these other solutions if you are so technically inclined. Having a non arm processor will help considerably with the chances of any of these working. Hope I helped!

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.At the moment you can not run Windows on the Pixelbook. There are rumors of a project called "campfire" that is going to allow dual boot between Windows and Chrome OS, but nothing is guaranteed on it yet. That said, in my experience, it is a bad idea to buy any product on speculation of future capabilities. Google is bad about not rolling things out to everyone. If you don't believe me, just ask someone who bought the Samsung Chromebook Pro expecting to be able to run Android apps.
