"I have 3 children ages 24, 22 and 14. I believe technology is essential so i keep my boys update with the latest and greatest. The real issue is maintaining the operating condition of computers, tablets and smart phones. I am the IT department around here and like to keep up on the latest and greatest.
I buy top o the line hardware, that's really never what plagues our devices, it's SOFTWARE....the Chromebox resolves that issue. I bought this for myself, I'm integrating into the cloud on every level.
I enjoy the product, it's refreshingly different in a good way."
Pros: no software, simple interface, the cloud, good performance, shares info with other devices

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
PostedAugust 25, 2012
"This is a simple device. Chrome OS works great and will continue getting better. As will all Google devices, hardware is just behind what is the newest. Disappointing that this device sells itself as eliminating wires and enabling flexibility yet there is no wireless keyboard/mouse option and it took 3 months to get the wired keyboard."
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, not wireless keyboard available for chrome os, no audio out option over diplayport
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Samsung Chrome OS Series 3 Chromebox
PostedJuly 27, 2012
I would recommend this to a friend!
PostedJuly 27, 2012
"I received my new Chromebox from the seller the same way it runs - ULTRA Fast !!! Chromebox takes some getting used to, everything is online. If you're expecting this system to be anything like windows, it isn't. As of right now Chrome OS doesn't support the use of an external optical device i.e; my usb cd/dvd drive, at least to the best of my knowledge at this time. Also had to purchase an eprinter to work with this system, & working on figuring out if I can scan to email and/or Google docs. As Google states about their Chrome OS, it's a work in progress so I'm hopeful there will be more future(windows-like??) functionality, apps, support, etc. for this lightweight & very fast machine. Everything I've read so far about boot time & speed has been my experience. My old XP rig was very tired & as far as windows I'm not interested in anything after XP so I had to make a decision. If you're looking for something lightweight, fast, & are a fan of Google docs & are email/messaging/surf/streaming heavy the Chromebox 3 will work perfectly for you."
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast

Lacks audio over HDIMI
PostedJuly 16, 2012
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
PostedJuly 16, 2012
"I had hoped to use this as the basis of a home theater setup. In its current configuration, it is not a good product for that.
The Display Ports carry audio, but that feature is not enabled when using an HDMI adapter. The workaround of connecting audio via the front 3.5 mm phono plug to an amp is clunky and inelegant, to say the least.
If the box had HDMI output (or HDMI audio through a Disply Port converter), it would be a real contender in the home theater/streaming media sector.
Absent that functionality, it doesn't really have much functionality as home theater PC."
