People need to keep in mind this CR-48 was merely a pilot program for testing Chrome OS. Google never sold these units, but other companies are indeed releasing chromebooks such as Samsung and Acer. They are decent laptops and recommended for cloud users. I even use various web based programs for coding such as Koding which has some excellent built in FTP functionality and syntax highlighting. Although I will say that the CR-48 has been a fun machine to hack as well and put Linux and BSD on. ;)
@iAfrica18 Yes! If you are a person who spends 99% of their time on internet. This is perfect for you. But if you want to play games and stuff which require fast PC's you are at the wrong adress.
@thebronzecat I heard it has very crappy specs. I also highly doubt it is dual bootable. Buy a decent laptop instead of this over-priced crap. You will have barely any freedom on this at all if looks like. Even less freedom than an Apple "computer". I hate Google, they stalk you and practically own the internet.
So it's a laptop with only a browser installed... seems overpriced and silly. I was hoping for at least something outside of the cloud... like a desktop, clock, etc...
He probably hates Ray because he got famous off of other people's content. Maybe it's because so many 13 year old children who can't spell blindly follow him due to unoriginal, immature jokes. Who knows.
chrome os ? its good for an smartphone or table pc but not for a notebook that cost 449,00 ! to expensive if it cost 150-250 ok but 449 :O omg :( and chrome os you can get for free but i think linux / ubuntu is a much more better :D
fucking cloners the have clone the macbook FUCK google apple rules android sux
ios is better ANDROID AND google sux apple rules i have an macbook black and a macbook pro and an imac and a ipad 2 and a iphone 4 they have cloned my macbook black FUCKING CLONERS google IS AN FAQQ company
What are the specs on this? How much RAM what is the processor? Also, Is their a USB for this so i can connect a mouse? What is the price of one of these?
Great product for the simple folk that wanna just use the Internet and wanna fast computer around that, something my mother would want. Although the price kinda funky, $500? Honestly I would rather get an IPad. I say $350 - $450 should be reasonable nothing really special under the hood.
@esmith0507 how do I do it? easily. the guy is on YouTube's homepage everyday and his comedy is mediocre. but his target demographic of 12 year olds seems to be a hot market. so congrats to him.
This looks like Linux. The only usefulness I could find with this machine is the super fast boot up speed. But with important services/programs that load upon start up, most OS'es will have an amount of start up time. But in the end, I'm a Technician/Developer/Network Admin/Black Hat so I need a fully operational computer that allows me to run PROGRAMS. Not applications.
@dellthinker FYI, to make it useful, just hit Ctrl-Alt-T to open up a terminal. it isn't a full blown terminal in normal mode, but it does have an SSH client which works great. So as a web developer, being able to SSH to my VPSes makes it very useful. As long as I can get my VIM, I'm a happy camper.
@dellthinker I am the lead admin of a large dot com. Wearing that hat, all I need is ssh and screen. Everything is done through a jump box typically. So if you have ssh what's the problem? This is a very good .... and quick unit to whip out and take care of an issue when on the go. I really don't need a full laptop. 100% of what I need is web and ssh. This thing lasts all day whereas my work issued laptop or even my asus netbook is limited.
@numetheus Being the lead sys admin of a large network you think it's okay to just ssh in to any server? No VPN options? After doing a simple google search I found no useful app that allows this without some modifications. And if it's mobility you're looking for I use my Nokia N8, whatever your preference with smartphones there are plenty of solutions that smash this chrome book idea. Sorry dude but you're making arguments that only nerds would agree with.
@dellthinker You can vpn from chromebook; although it is limited to only L2TP/IPSec with Pre Shared Key (PSK). You don't need to run a chrome page for ssh. It has an ssh client built in. Press ctrl-alt-t. You can do it without getting into developer mode. And yeah, I know it's an argument that only nerds would follow; but hey ... I was under the impression you were of the variety. lol
@numetheus No disrespect from the geek pun, but how many corporations fully support IPSec? I mean even for my Nokia N8 i have to go through many Linux things to create a secure tunnel that mVPN can understand. OpenVPN is the mostly used atm because of the PPTP standard. Maybe because it's used more, I don't know your jobs net settings. But what if IPSec and or L2TP aren't available for your job. Then what?
Can i have it?
