Good way for me to try out a laptop, I do have a broken one in my closet, an alien software one that my friend gave me if I figure out whats wrong with it I can have it kinda deal.

I put in for one of these the day of the conference where it was showcased and was just wondering last night if I'd ever see one... I'm going to take this as a good omen

It runs web-based applications, not legacy PC software.
Haha I'm not sure that I want EVERYTHING i do to require an internet connection. That just screams reliability and privacy issues. yikes! Let us know how it works out sammy!

Works great so far. Its integrated with your Google account. It can run more than Web-based apps you just gotta hack it and get a real Linux prompt.
