so as an owner of a CR-48 would you buy the Chromebook?

If no, is it because you already have the CR-48 and therefore don't have the need, or because you didn't like the CR-48 and don't think the Chromebook would be useful?



My wife's netbook is starting to get a bit flaky (power cord issues) and if we decide to retire it permanently to a desk for the kids to watch movies with and buy her a new one I would definitely consider a Chromebook, but only if they get the Netflix plugin I've been hearing about working. My wife does three things with her current Win7 netbook, she reads her email, browses the web, and watches Netflix.

I received the invitations you speak of, and I was also one of the pilot CR-48 users. Pretty cool tech overall.


No, basically because I have a Xoom and don't use the CR-48 as much as I did before it. I would consider it more seriously had I not made that purchase.
