Engadget - For almost two years now, Google's been talking up the idea of always-on, always-connected laptops based on a version of its Chrome browser. Local storage, of course, was not an ingredient in the equation. And while a lucky few developers got to put the concept to the test with the help of the CR-48, it never surfaced as an honest to goodness consumer product.
Samsung has quietly listed a new Chromebook on its Korean website.
Engadget: Whenever we review Chromebooks, we always come to more or less the same conclusion: it's a neat idea, a computer where everything is done online, but it's not worth the money. That was back when Chrome OS devices were priced at $500, competing with netbooks that could run not just the Chrome browser, but all manner of Windows apps. Ditto for tablets, which can be tricked out with many thousands of apps on both iOS and Android.
Techgadgetreviews - A few days before Black Friday, both Samsung Series 5 and Acer AC700 chromebooks had their prices decrease to become affordable gift ideas for your loved ones.
