listed the device on its official site at $300, but several other vendors seem to be willing to part with it for an even lower amount. Amazon for instance has put it up for $288, and Adorama is selling the laptop for an even more interesting $280. That’s tablet territory, if you ask me. Anyway, this particular model makes use of a 13.3-inch display (resolution count 1366 by 768), and is powered by an Intel Celeron 2955U Haswell processor with 2GB of RAM and 16GB solid state drive. And speaking of processors, Intel, too, seems to be all in the Chromebook game. It has just been announced that the Bay Trail platform is now supported by Coreboot, which is another indication that some even more affordable models powered by Bay Trail chips could be incoming. Much to ponder for Microsoft’s new CEO, then.]]>
