CR-48

Day 1

After the initial shock has worn. I sit here to take a reflective look at the system on day 1.

Ran from 2pm to 5pm without needing a charge. The battery took 4 hours to totally charge while in use. Installed 19 apps from the web store. Used 6 or 7. So far so good! Good luck to all of the other applicants. I hope you get yours.

Now for some admin.
Chrome OS

As some of you may or may not know. Google has created an OS. With this new OS has come the need for people to test it. That's where I come in. I have received a brand new Google Chrome CR-48. Its a notebook, Its a netbook. It is the internet. No HDD involved. Not that I can think of. All the computing is done out there. In the interweb. This blog will serve as my sounding board for the experiments that I am going to preform.

Now... legend has it, back in the day I used to be quite the blogger (pre social network era). I don't know if I have lost my touch or not. Having a computer that is instantly connected to the web may help my creative blogging juices. Sometimes its about the journey. Not the destination.
