Efficient. QUICK boot. LONG battery life. If you live in the cloud, you could hardly do better than a Samsung Chromebook.
Some here have complained about it being flimsy. I disagree. It is plastic, but it seems sturdy and lightweight to me. Bright screen, USB and SD reader. Even 3G is built-in. WiFi works great.
If you have a desktop Windows computer with remote desktop support, add CloudRDP by Ericom and you have the power of a Windows box with the lightweight and long battery life of the Chromebook.
I am giving it 4 stars because it has a keyboard without the PageUp, PageDn, Home, Delete or End keys. I know that there are keyboard combinations for these, but a long-term power user will find this frustrating (I know I do). I don't miss the F-keys they removed, but they should not have eliminated the navigation keys. If you never use these keys, you will not miss them.
