I have the R 11 hybrid. It's pretty nice media consumption/shitposting device for less than $200.

The pre-loaded demo builds do this a lot. Consumer is usually pretty stable.

Also, recovery is mad easy. You just install the Recovery App in any Desktop/Laptop version of Chrome, tell it what model you want to recover, and it downloads and installs it to a flash drive/SD Card for ya, you pop that into your chromebook, let it do it's thing, and it's good as new. All your settings and junk are stored server-side for ChromeOS, so as soon as you log back in after recovery, everything is right there in a matter of minutes again.

Chromebooks are worthless and have no reason to exist.

Do you always talk in baseless, unintelligent absolutes like that?

You have to hold it down to make it turn off, and there's an obvious visual cue where the screen starts to turn white. It's a stupid placement but it doesn't impact you like it would on a Windows laptop, which will happily lock or go to sleep every time you hit the button.

You can't into Windows on a Chromebook.

GalliumOS is the way to go.

Is the emmc storage they use in the current line up any good? I like how small and light they are, thinking of getting one to replace my Acer c720. Will it be bottle necked by the storage speed running Linux?

chromeos is more like a netbook from years ago

completely worthless without a real computer

emmc is the cheapest and most worthless storage solution. it's slow. it's like running the OS from a flash drive.

A cheap, lightweight, high battery life laptop was a brilliant idea, but having it locked down with a crippled OS was a terrible mistake.

Don't they improve performance with each version?

why the fuck can't someone make one of these with an ARM cpu, open bootloader and a giant fucking battery?
Imagine having a cute little openbsd arm laptop with 20 hours of battery life.

could have gotten a x230 for less.

>Hardware so bad it drops input when writing documents
wow, it's shit

>arm
>open bootloader
never gonna happen. thank samsung

I'd be happy with MIPS too, my dwm + openbsd setup would run well on anything.

Could get a T61 for less
