I've had good experiences with Toshiba laptops before, any info on that model?

Not much, unfortunately.

I love my samsung chromebook.

Problem is it's so good I have zero legitimate reason to upgrade.

Woudln't trade mine for my gfs macbook air even.

Love the look of the HPs and I've been wanting a Chromebook (as I currently don't have a working personal laptop at all and really no need for a "real" laptop for that use), but 4lbs.? Yikes. Not sure if want. Also, the resolution is the same on the 14" HP as the Acer, which seems a bit low, but may work out better for me as I already scale my stuff larger in Windows.

$350 full windows 8, Haswell, hybrid laptop/tablet
Also there are plenty of sub $300 laptops already out there. There's really no reason to get something like this unless you just hate Windows for some reason and love Google.

Also IPS

I am definitely getting a baytrail laptop to compliment my retina MBP.

I'm in the same boat. I'll prob buy some sort of portable computer this winter and I hope it's a chromebook. However, 4 lbs seems heavy.

• Haswell Celeron
• 2 GB RAM
• 16 GB SSD

I loved my old Cr-48 until the SSD finally died about a week ago.

I want a Chromebook but they're so slow to roll out in Canada. We still don't have the Acer C720...

Toshiba while not OMG or anything looks way nicer than the Acer. I just wish we had a smaller variant. I'd prefer an 11" Model that looks like that.

Either way I'm waiting on that Samsung refresh before I make my decision.

Any word on when that will happen?
