The first Chromebooks will be from Samsung and Acer. Chromebook are not typical notebooks. You won’t wait minutes for your computer to boot and browser to start. You’ll be reading your email in seconds. It support automatic software updates. Your apps, games, photos, music, movies and documents will be accessible anywhere. Chromebooks will last a day of use on a single charge, so you don’t need to carry a power cord everywhere. And with optional 3G, just like your phone, you’ll have the web when you need it. Chromebooks have many layers of security built in so there is no anti-virus software to buy and maintain. Even more importantly, you won't spend hours fighting your computer to set it up and keep it up to date.

At the core of each Chromebook is the Chrome web browser.



Chromebooks will be available online June 15 in the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Netherlands, Italy and Spain. More countries will follow in the coming months. In the U.S., Chromebooks will be available from Amazon and Best Buy and internationally from leading retailers.
