Sleek, beautiful, and fast

I have only had my Chromebook for five days. Before buying, I did make myself live in a Chrome-only environment on my PC for a few days. The changeover is nothing. I like the Google Drive and Cloud Printing.
Mine boots from OFF in six seconds. It is ready to go when I am. The apps work just fine. But the big thing is that it is just so fast. I am amazed. It is a perfect machine for the Internet world.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast and sexy
I would recommend this to a friend!

I'm not a big fan of cloud space YET. Although there are times when i'd rather use a hard drive based product, the Chromebook is perfect for when I am studying or waiting for other classes to begin. It is a very handy tool for educational and leisure purposes. Next to my S3, this is my new best friend!

Excellent Product

I have only had this for 4 days, but so far I love it! I was looking for something to replace a Netbook and this is it!
I wanted something light weight and slim design. Couldn't ask for more with the Chromebook. After seeing Ipads, this product is lighter, despite having a larger screen, and you have a full keyboard! Win Win!

As a Chrome user to start, this product just makes everything all that much easier. My phone, my laptop, desktop are all exactly the same. All my information is at my fingertips right out of the box! No set up. No installing software. Everything is just there and ready to use!
Chromebook starts immediately upon opening the cover. Battery life is amazing. Once it is fully charged, after using it for over 2 hours, my battery life was still over 85% despite it not being plugged in. Awesome!
Screen is very easy to look at. I had read that some folks were having trouble with the viewing angle. I use this on my lap, and have moved it around and no matter where it is (on my lap) I have had no trouble at all with viewing. If it is not plugged in, the screen does become a bit dimmer..just an FYI, however, I didn't find it bothersome.
The keyboard is easier to use than my laptop or netbook. It is much like a desktop keyboard. (I do need to learn some of the shortcuts, like caps lock as there is no capslock key.)
I have always had a problem using trackpads. I tried using a wireless mouse with it just to see how it worked., and it was a bit sluggish. However, I really am not having any issues with the trackpad. It is very large, so it is easy to use.
The number and selection of apps are great, and they are all free!!!!
Were I pressed to find an issue with this? It would be that I'd rather see the AC input on the side, rather than the back of the unit so that it wasn't 'in the way'. But since the battery lasts so long, you don't need it to be plugged in that often!
For the money, it is amazing. I plan on selling both my laptop and netbook. I really cannot say enough good things about the Chromebook. Excellent product!
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight

Probably the Coolest Thing You Will Ever Find In This Price Point

Being a frequent SAMSUNG user and having all of the google apps on my android devices made the decision to buy this an easy one. The computer looks very small on display but once you sit down with it you can seamlessly adapt to its extremely well laid out keyboard and large responsive track pad. My only wish is that it had a caps lock button as it has been replaced with a instant search button. Also I would advise anyone who purchases it to be sure you have a "cloud ready" printer. The OS seems to have a long list of problems with old fashioned printers.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
