I'll probably update OP with more info.

osht

Are there any other laptops that have 3G? :o

Can't think of any laptops, tablets are probably the closest thing.


My only concern is that these will end up too netbook-y, and come off as a half-assed laptop.


I don't have a use for a laptop that doesn't have a dedicated video chip :/

every thing is chrome in the future


I wouldn't pay $300-$500 for one of these...

these suck by the way
unless you're only using online services, you're forgeted. you can't store more than (I think) five megabytes of stuff offline, and it's auto deleted after 5 days.
there is NO using .exe

this means no steam games or offline editing.

Seems like a waste of money to me. My computer and laptop run the internet just fine, I don't need some brand new laptop just to use the internet on.

These are for people who use computers to get on facebook.

Edit: Holy flying forget, $500 for a computer that is mainly used for the internet? stuffty move Google.

these suck by the way
1 unless you're only using online services, you're forgeted. 2 you can't store more than (I think) five megabytes of stuff offline, 3 and it's auto deleted after 5 days.
4 there is NO using .exe

5 this means no steam games or 6 offline editing.

1. well obviously. that's what they're completely, 100% designed for. how did you miss that, its at the beginning of like every video i watched lol.
2. theyre built to operate with a cloud. you never have a need to store anything offline.
3. see above
4. you wouldnt need to. they're not meant to.
5. theyre not meant for gaming, at all. how hard is that to figure out? i mean, besides the little chrome apps.
6. im not even sure what you were trying to say here, but they can do stuff offline just fine. it says lots of apps are designed to continue running if you go offline.

I strongly doubt that any average person on this forum is going to like this for their own use.
