    In reply to Acer Wants to be First with a Chrome OS Netbook
    I'll have to wait and see how flexible Chrome is, but I really think that there's a little too much hype over it right now. I don't see a lot of netbooky devices adopting it, and I certainly don't see consumers lusting for it. The way it seems now is like a very limited gateway to all of Google's services, and with few advantages over robust operating systems. I personally would choose any machine running W7 or Ubuntu over Chrome at this point. But I'll keep an open mind so I don't end up on some "top 5 asshats" list.

    No Atom, and no 3G…yet.

    ...is ION meant here? that would make much more sense... cause there is an Atom inside ;)
    but apart from android this nothing special... just more of the same.

    Meh, but it is on an Acer. Is it just me or do they just FEEL flimsy. I'm always scared lifting the lid on the models I've handled that I'll bend it.

    @JCWhitless: Well I'm kinda guilty actually :( I do own an ACER laptop, and it has worked the balls since day one, with it's massive 18.2" display. Still this particular one inspires a big fucking "Meh". Nothing really special about it...meh...!

    @JCWhitless: Eh, I do a fair amount of laptop repair and actually really like Acer's notebook design. They tend to be cheap looking because of the finishes on them, but the actual construction is usually pretty solid.

    Couldn't pay me to take anything HP/Compaq builds, though.

    @Aetius: Terrible engineering. HP/Compaq manage to consistently come up with the most overcomplicated, flimsily engineered notebooks I've seen.

    This has been the case for years, but the DV series was probably the absolute worst. DV2000s and 6000s suffered from major motherboard issues. The DV9000s had one of the worst hinge designs I've ever seen. The hinges would break, which would in turn break all the plastic around it and suddenly the owner's looking at a $300-400 repair. The list just goes on.

    Couldn't they have used one of the dozens of crappy SNES games to ruin instead of arguably the best? It makes me sad.

    6-cell battery - the key component oft-missing from netbooks. Could be a buy.
