    2014 is the year I will be investing in a Chromebook. Seeing as their market share has jumped alot in 2013 , I guess they have a future.

    I will be trying a £200 Samsung one though.

    For Chromebooks to really start leaving the shelves the intenal storage needs to be more as does the ram. 32GB/2GB looks paltry compared to a standard windows/apple laptop.
    Chromebooks kind of give the impression of being the love child of a laptop and a tablet and they have only inherited the less good genes of both parents. ;-)

    Indeed! Is Asus can produce this, Acer can do a W520 (or a similar named product) for about the same. And just to be clear, I do really like the styling of the W510, that is actually one of the attractions for me.
