Guest Yachtsman1 Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Santa has said there is one of these waiting in my Amazon favourites box, is it worth trying, good value, advantages & disadvantage, can it run my PTE shows through my projector? Or is it just a tablet in a different suit :unsure:/> Yachtsman1http://www.google.co.uk/intl/en_uk/chrome/devices/acer-c7-chromebook.html#specs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Yachtsman1 Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Hi Eric,I have a Samsung version of this laptop. It runs the Chrome OS, which is a secure version of Linux and is not compatible with the Windows operating system. I'm thinking about dual booting with Ubuntu since I could use that at work.Chrome OS is great as a secondary device for reading gmail and browsing the web. Presently it's not a good solution for PicturesToExe. You can play YouTube videos but not your slideshows in .exe format. I tried the remote desktop plugin and it works (with audio) but not the best quality.What I am hoping is the Android will be ported to these laptops since it is a very capable operating system/platform. Project butter is amazing on my Nexus 7 tablet.Thanks,TomHi TomI read up on Chrome since I posted, I don't think it's for me, from what I can gather the low price is to get you in then after 12 months there is an on-cost, I think. Regards Eric.Yachtsman1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
