Chrome OS Laptops - A Review

Here is a critical review of Google's Chromebook. I call it critical because the reviewer dwells more on the bad and the ugly of Chromebook. And he also works for Microsoft ;-).

Stefan's review of Google Chromebook seems quite honest considering he owns one. These are the main points he puts forth in his review.

The Good Aspects of Chromebook

• Hardware - Very good quality.
• Very fast resume and start.
• Large trackpad that supports Multitouch.

The Bad Aspects of Chromebook

• Chrome OS updates - somewhat similar to Microsoft service packs - took a long time to download.
• Underpowered unit - Lag time is huge when surfing the web using 3G and WiFi.
• Very stingy disk space - Only 16 GB.
• You have to shell out $500 to own a Chromebook.
