The build quality of the Cr48 was pretty decent, especially for a machine they were giving away. The only part on mine that really failed was the display hinge, after I dropped it. The keyboard is pretty decent. The atom processor and the 2GB max of ram is what really was the problem with it. All that said, they supported the Cr48 for a long time after it was sent to people, especially considering it was basically public beta test hardware.
