Google’s New ChromeBook

June 7, 2011 No Comments

Google has done some amazing and innovative things in the past. Their search engine revolutionized the internet and how we go about finding things. Then their browser came along to change how fast we find those things. Their phone has given us a smarter and easier way to go about our day. Now they’re doing something that might be a bit too bold. In walks ChromeBook. This is a laptop that from my understand has no real operating system, no real file system and no real harddrive. It’s just a browser that lets you store everything in the Google cloud. With an amazing boot time of 8 seconds flat I am impressed – but with no real file system or core files to load why shouldn’t it load fast? Apparently with each and every update it will get better and faster which is no surprise since their browser Google Chrome gets better with each update. Following suit the chromebook will update automatically in the background – you won’t even know it’s happening. Nobody is really sure how much the ChromeBook will run you but I don’t imagine it will be a huge amount of money. If it does cost as much as an actual netbook I will not buy this. I can browse the internet from my own netbook and do much more on top of that. But what do you think of this whole Chromebook? Sound appealing to you in anyway?
