As nice as it would be for ChromeOS to become a huge success, it never will. It’s pointless, Android has basically surpassed it as ChromeOS and Android were on a collision course for quite awhile, and the fact that ChromeOS is nowhere near as capable as Windows7/8, makes it flat out silly.

“Browsing — what the machine was built to do — is screaming fast. I watched hours of 1080p videos on YouTube, Vimeo and Netflix without a single hiccup. Script-heavy sites like Rdio and Facebook simply fly. I typed a few documents, including the majority of this review, into Google Docs with zero latency. Scrolling and multi-touch gestures are smooth, and the responsiveness of the UI is exactly as crisp as I’d demand from a premium laptop.”

dude, what’s wrong with you, that makes no sense. And using an analogy that doesn’t apply doesn’t add any more sense to it.

I guess you answered what type of target market this product is for though…

Then buy an HP dm1z and install Chromium OS on it.

True, but now that Google owns Motorola, Google may want to use Moto to help push Chromebooks. To my understanding, Intel practically makes all the internals anyways, so its not like it would be that challenging and Motorola has already dabbled with the laptop form factor with Webtop.

There is nothing “cheaper and better” that does what a Chromebook does. The whole point of Chromebooks is the simplicity and lack of hassle. No need to install anti-virus, no need to install updates. Installing apps is as simple as it gets. Instant-on, days on a battery. Name another device that does the same (hint: there isn’t one).

No, silly. That’s the Apple market.
