They emphasize the ability to access all of your materials, especially apps, anywhere, from any machine running Chrome OS, anywhere anytime, same experience. Same Experience Anywhere.

“A True Cloud Computing Device.” Speed in starting up, booting, re-booting, waking up, everything instant. Friend’s Log feature allows you to look through the web in true incognito mode (incase you’re on your friends computer, for example).

They note how this OS, even though it’s based in the internet, you’ll be able to work offline just fine. On the other hand, a Google Chrome OS notebook will be able to connect with 3G and eventually LTE. With these connections, a person can use their cloud connection to the rest of their devices “cloud print” and have their document ready at home having printed it from a taxi cab.

“100MB free data every month for 2 years on Verizon, no contracts. pay for what you need. Plans from $9.99. No activation, ovrage or cancellation fees. Easy self-activation process.”
Security includes not only the castle that is the Chrome browser, but in Chrome OS – Seamless, automatic updates, Sanboxing, User separation and instant encryption for all data, and most important Verified Boot. Copies of everything are kept incase something goes wrong.

I'm very happy to see the included security features you highlighted. I definitely want to give this a whirl!

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
