ChromeBook?

Thinking about getting one over the holidays is there a model that people have used and liked? I like the price of them and will be mainly used at home just for surfing and reading email so forth.

I've got friends with ChromeBooks and they seem to like them. Here's the one that is getting plenty of press and is pretty price competitive.

The review is a very good one and does talk about the 11" and 14" as well as some other brands. I checked BestBuy and right now both the 11" and the 14" are selling at $279, which seems like a pretty good price. BestBuy's are wifi only models, supposedly there is a model with mobile data plans and connections at a higher price.

I bought my wife's 80+ year old Aunt a Samsung one for Mother's day, and she loves it.

They are a great alternative for tablets for some.

Thanks for the feedback.
