Google: The Chromebook

Chromebook. A piece of machine whose only function is to access the internet.

I thought the ad was very well done. I'll definitely be getting one.
But for something which can't do anything but open Chrome, it's very overpriced (apparently 350-450 (+ Cloud storage fee?)).

It's practically going to be iPad vs Chromebook when it's released.

I'm interested to know what the people of Basil (a majority using FF) think about this.

Like that one comment, "I CAN'T WAIT TO PAY MONEY FOR AN INTERNET BROWSER WITH A KEYBOARD ATTACHED TO IT."
It's like an Ipad, but you have less control over the things you want. No downloading things, no saving word files, etc...
Might as well as just project my Iphone onto a laptop screen.[/quote]

A very well done ad indeed. xD But I'd like to have a test try of one and a more indepth explanation of how it works before I even think about buying one.
