RadX Moderator February 26, 2013 Share February 26, 2013 As above, am thinking of splurging to see how it goes. Amazon selling for $249 11.6 model. Pretty nice. Any views? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_prince Supersonic February 26, 2013 Share February 26, 2013 Very limited usage... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadX Moderator February 26, 2013 Author Share February 26, 2013 Very limited usage... would it be similar to only surfing and all? When open office comes into play, would it then be a more viable choice? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee 1st Gear February 27, 2013 Share February 27, 2013 normally would rather wait for 2nd gen, but then again for that kind of price and made by Samsung.. just go for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beehive3783 Turbocharged February 27, 2013 Share February 27, 2013 I read somewhere that if you're not happy with Chrome OS, you can always install some Linux variant in the laptop. Do a Google for more info. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not the Acer version at only $199? Is the feature list much shorter? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jusnel 6th Gear December 5, 2019 Share December 5, 2019 reviving this thread. how's the latest chromebook models now? better than before? I'm thinking of getting one, assuming that latest models have improved from the past. reading from HWZ forum, many happy users one thing for sure is you need to be light user to enjoy chromebook not for gamers most of us are actually light users. We don't even utilize 100% of our hp. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watwheels Supersonic December 5, 2019 Share December 5, 2019 Dont see the point. Cant install Microsoft office, cant do photo/video editing or anything to do with multimedia projects, I dunno what simple games it can run. Looks like a laptop that cannot do a lot of things. For email I think still can do it from the chrome browser. Might as well recycle your old pc/laptop and download/run the chromium OS. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
