What can I do with one of these?

This Chromebook has a 2.2Ghz CPU and 32GB SSD. It has a OS that is only good for browsing the internet and running Android apps. And it costs $1000.

What am I missing?

The 3:2 screen alone makes it worth the price. I really dislike 16:9/10.

You finally get to give away your soul by legally signing it over to Google.

It's a well-designed device and looks nice. People buy things like that as a status symbol. If you're in a meeting, you don't want to pull out some janky-ass Thinkpad. The Pixel looks nice enough that people might actually ask what it is out of envy as opposed to mockery.

Wait a year and get them for $300 just like how the first gen depreciated and install real Linux.

People forget chromeos is built upon the meme known as gentoo so support for the fabled os should be god tier

>1000
christ, just get one of those 150-200 dollar ones. chrome OS is so fucking limited anyways that you can't even do anything requiring high-spec performance. plus the cheap ones tend to be pretty durable because they are meant for schools.

You can install Ubuntu on chrome book hardware, right?

Get a cheap one. Chromebooks are gonna be the new thing soon anyways, they already are outselling MacBook in the US, and schools are sucking them up by the thousands because they are so cheap.

Why the fuck is the SSD so tiny? It would be the perfect laptop if they didn't go for this cloud-based bullshit.

Just get one for like $200-$400.

The $1000 ones are MacBook-tier garbage.
