Chromebook in Russia

Yesterday, Google Mobile Day announced the official launch of sales in Russia of a new type of computer - Chromebooks .







Chromebook is designed primarily to work with an Internet browser (of course, Google Chrome) and Google Docs. User data is stored "in the cloud" on Google servers.

Unlike conventional computers, the chromebook is turned on and loaded in two seconds, and wakes up altogether instantly. It can not be a virus and the operating system can not be spoiled.





In addition to the pre-installed browser, you can install programs from a special online store on the Chromebook. Now there are already tens of thousands of such programs. There are skype and dropbox and angrybirds and more.



Chrombuk can be used without the Internet - it can play music and video from a flash drive, there are programs that can work without connecting to the Internet. User data can also be saved to a USB flash drive.



Today in the M-Video and Citylink stores three models of Chromebooks will be on sale:

Khrombuk - a great option for children, for schools, for the elderly, for unskilled users, and for ordinary users as a second device. It is small, light and not very expensive. Many people now use the computer only for the Internet, music and movies. Chromebook does an excellent job with all this, but unlike a regular computer, it is not susceptible to virus attacks and does not need to be configured. It is important that the operating system and main programs are free.
