Surprise people! I'm not a geek nor a nerd but I just wanna share with y'all about what I just know of a few days ago. I just read a couple of news that our dear Google is gonna release their very own Chromebook using Chrome OS. Surely you will have heard of Google Chrome (the web browser) but maybe some of you have not heard of this new "Chromebook" or Chrome OS, which I find very fascinating.


Now, for some great features in the Chromebook would be the booting time. Chromebooks boot in EIGHT seconds! Yes, I repeat 8 seconds to boot and resume instantly. Now, your favourite websites can be loaded very quickly and run smoothly, with full support for the latest web standards and Adobe Flash. Chromebooks are designed in a way that it get faster over time as updates are released.

Another great feature in the Chromebook is that there is a built-in Wi-Fi and 3G! Need I say more? In the 8 seconds of boot up, it quickly connects to your favourite wireless network so you're on the web right from the start. The 3G models include a FREE 100 mb/month of mobile data from Verizon Wireless. Now you can go everywhere and anywhere to work on your Chromebook!

One of the most outstanding feature of the Chromebook is that your apps, documents, and settings are all stored safely in the cloud. NO, I don't mean the clouds in the sky not THAT kinda cloud. What I mean by cloud here is that it is stored in remote servers controlled by Google or other companies. Instead of the normal PC software model, which relies on installed apps like Microsoft Office, customers can now use on Gmail or other Web mail program/Google Docs/Office 365, which exist online only. You can run Microsoft's cloud Office software on a Google Chrome device.


You can run millions of web apps; games to spreadsheets to photo editors. With the power of HTML5, apps can keep working even in those rare moments when you're not connected. No CDs required, just download from the Chrome Web Store to try the latest apps.


Chromebooks are easy to share. Family and friends can log in to experience their own Chrome settings, apps, extensions or use Guest Mode. Either way, no one else using your Chromebook will have access to your email and personal data.


Chromebooks gets better and better over time. Turn it on, it updates itself; automatically! Apps will stay up-to-date. Latest and greatest version of the OS. No annoying updates prompts anymore!

Chromebooks run the first consumer OS designed from the group up to defend against ongoing threat of malware and viruses. Need I say more? It has a great security built in it.

So what you waiting for? Discover more, and be prepared to purchase one maybe? It's gonna be on sale soon. You getting it or not? :)
