This looks really cool.
I kinda want to hijack this thread to ask what specific use cases people have for their Chromebooks? I'm pretty interested in it as a mobile (disposable?) terminal.
I found that Groupon has a refurbished C720 Chromebook for 130 bucks right now and it piqued my interest.
- giraj 12y agoI've been using Chromebook as only computer for the last year as a student/developer(/tech-entusiast) and I am very satisfied. I have the Samsung ARM one, and I've installed chroagh[1] (super easy, run one command and you have an arch install) headless, so I have a complete linux terminal. SSH would also work. Right now I'm looking to upgrade (to macbook air 11" I hope) for more power with the same 8h battery time. As a mobile and disposable (cheap!) terminal (and browser!), I can definitely recommend a chromebook. [1] https://github.com/drinkcat/chroagh https://github.com/drinkcat/chroagh
