I actually have been loving my Chromebook. As grrlpup says, it's a browser plus keyboard. It's kinda like a tablet without the touchscreen.

You can use Google Docs on it offline - you can create new ones without the internets, but to access stuff in the cloud, you have to specifically choose documents and mark them as available offline. Which means, you keep a copy of the doc on your Chromebook that syncs with the cloud. Then, you can work on that doc on your computer and when you have access to the internets again, it will sync up.

HP just came out with a new line that's pretty. It doesn't have an HDMI port, it does use MicroUSB for charging. http://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/devices/

I've discovered a couple of image editing apps that are pretty nice (although I haven't been making icons or gifs like I used to) so I haven't really put the apps to the test.

Mine is super light. It really does hold a charge for many hours and the keyboard is nice. My only issue, maybe, is sometimes having video and chat lag during our Chatwatches...
