You make some great points, especially when drawing a comparison with Apple.
However, I believe that most users purchasing these devices are coming over from Windows. When you compare the ease of use of ChromeOS/Android to Apple, it may be second-rate, but the Google systems are miles ahead of the unintuitiveness of the Windows (95/98/XP/7) experience for the average user.
I purchased the Samsung Chromebook for my girlfriend on a whim. I was skeptical, but it's a great device. Far less maintenance than her Windows lappy, and far cheaper than an Apple device. That's a big niche.
- netcan 13y agoI agree. Im glad ggogle are tackling this. MS has got a combination of innovators dilemma and a core culture of serving office workers that makes it hard fr them to output a good modern home user OS. Apple don't do cheap. So, go google. I just wish they learned more lessons from Apple.
