Google’s much-anticipated Chromebooks are finally here and will start taking orders from June 15th. Chromebooks are especially built and optimized for the web. Google claims that Chromebooks boot in 8 seconds and resume instantly. We could say Chromebooks are the first real netbooks as they are specifically designed to fully make use of the Internet.
Recently Google unveiled the first net to be sold running the Chrome OS — models from Samsung and Acer.

About Jose Tinto
Personally i expect more from Google on this netbook. This looks 90% similar to current netbook.
