We love ours! We got an HP referb on Woot for about $200. Free life
time T-Mobile (slows down after 250 mb but still provides data when no
wi-fi). Beautiful picture. Super fast because of SSD. I use Remote
Desktop to work on my development machine and also access my server when
out visiting customers. I'm taking an online course and the picture and
sound is great. Light & nice keyboard. 8+ hours of battery life.
I can't think of a single drawback. Of course as Fred would say, "YMMV"

Looking for comments and recommendations regarding the
usefulness and performance of Chromebooks or Chromeboxes?
Pros, cons, tips, techniques, gotchas ... vendors or specific
product models to consider or avoid? What to upgrade (memory,
SSD's?), etc. How easy is printing? Performance? Ease of
transitioning from a thick client to browser based client?
Use case:
1. Personal use with cloud based email, online technical
research and reading, online accounting (Quicken/Quickbooks),
collaborative writing via online wikis or Google Office, blog
maintenance.
2. Potential as laptop/desktop replacements for customers with
mostly browser based workflows and/or virtual desktops/Citrix
apps running back in their data centers.
Thanks!
Malcolm
