What's great about it: Lightweight, portable, battery life, easy set up, price
What's not so great: Must be willing to work within browser which may take a bit of adjusting
I absolutely love my Chromebook (CB). It is super light and thin, the battery lasts for hours, turning the computer on and off, updating, and completing online tasks all take seconds.
As a college student, the most important functions of my school computer are to type documents, create presentations, take notes and get online. The CB does all of this effortlessly using Google Docs and Evernote.
I will repeat what other reviewers have, though. Do your research before purchasing! This OS is not for the faint of heart or non-Google user/tech-savs. I recommend switching over to Chrome for browsing, Cloud Print, Google Docs, Drive, and Mail before purchasing. Get used to all of these new programs you will be relying on in advance and see if it's for you.
As for me, I have not regretted my purchase for a second. This is every college student's best friend. I love my purchase so much that I wrote a detailed review on Evernote to share with my friend Alec. Here is a link to it! https://www.evernote.com/shard/s288/sh/ca1a971a-4fc9-45fd-bdcf-10e51b188067/1539072b1ef83b6af3d50ded1ec07ba6
Please feel free to comment with any questions and I will be happy to answer to my best ability.

What's great about it: Free
What's not so great: Cannot be used with Chromebook
Received this item for free with my Samsung Chromebook. I laughed at the sales rep because the CB doesn't even have an optical drive to load this with, and the computer uses an integrated sandbox security system, making this product completely useless.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What happens to the 3G after the first free two years ?

How much is the monthly service fee if I want to continue using it ?
The 3G would have to be covered by a cell phone provider, so the price will depend. For instance, through AT&T, it costs $10 per month to add an Internet device to your mobile share plan.

Can I buy additional warranty years for Chromebook?

Wish item: Samsung - 11.6" Chromebook - 2GB Memory - 16GB Flash (eMMc) Memory - Silver
If I can buy additional warranty, how much do I have to pay per year?

Thank you!
You can purchase additional warranty time through the retailer, but not through the manufacturer. BestBuy offered me an extended warranty through them but I apologize, as I cannot remember the price.

does it have or can u get ram on it

It has 2GB of RAM. That is not upgradeable as far as I know, although I can't see what you would need more on this type of machine.

java flash player

Is this unit compatible with Java and flash player
Yes. For questions like this, I really recommend you download google chrome and use it as your primary browser for a bit. If you can do it in the browser, you can do it on the chromebook.

Can the Samsung Chromebook use the HDMI port for a blu ray player?

Yep. Use it on my Samsung blu-ray frequently. I am curious if that only works because they are both Samsung products though.

Free google drive

Just say I use all 100GB but I don't need anymore after two years do they start charging for for it?
Or do they only charge for additional storage over and above what I allready used?
You will never be charged for using that initial 100 GB. Google also will not delete your data. After two years, any documents in your Google Docs account are free to stay there. You will only have to pay for any additional docs you enter after that.
