This Chromebook is pretty impressive so far.  For $155CAD I got a very good laptop.  It's responsive and breezes through web browsing quickly, with only cluttered webpages with lots of videos and advertisements slowing it down.  Being a Chromebook, you have to keep your expectations in line.  This is not a laptop for people who need it to do everything you could want, but that's how they give you such a snappy computer at such a low price.  ChromeOS is really smart.  You CAN download files to the computer, but with the small SSD, its probably not going to hold a lot of video or music files.That said, it runs silently, coolly, has a 8hr battery life, and boots up quickly with no laggy startup.  The display is nicer than I would have thought given the reviews I've read, so that's a plus.  Everything looks sharp on this 11.6 display.  There is no need for a higher resolution in my opinion. It also has USB 3.0, which is a big plus if you want to bring an external hard drive with you to play videos/music/docs when you're offline.  I can't complain with this device as it does a lot of things very well.The trackpad and keyboard are actually pretty nice too.Recommended!
