Looking to sell off my HP ChromeBook 14 (4GB RAM). Runs that Linux based ChromeOS from Google. :) Is less than 2 months old. Am willing to part with it for INR.20,000/-.
Any takers?

Why do you want to sell it, Mayuresh? Was it unsuitable for the use you had intended to put it to? Was it underwhelming in capabilities?
How was your experience with ChromeOS? Is it up to the hype? How does it match with user needs, in your view, in the Indian context? What would be the best use case scenario for it?
It would be great to know about these things from your point of view.

The ChromeBook was purchased for my father who can't be considered a power user. It isn't unsuitable, just that he fell in love with his newly purchased smartphone. I wouldn't call the ChromeBook underwhelming in any of it's capabilities.
The ChromeOS experience is really great, absolutely harmonized hardware and software. Yes, it is totally up to the hype and matches it's intended purpose, i.e. a machine primarily for "using" web services.
I can't keep it because it would be a dead investment for me, I am a software developer and the only development one can do with the ChromeBook running ChromeOS is using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Google's Dart.

Hi Mayuresh,
Would it be possible to have a look at the device? Do get in touch directly to exchange coordinates.

You can install Ubuntu on it and you can install most of the developer packages you want anyways its not such a powerful machine but for the battery and portablity its quite good. Search for "chrubuntu" there are lot of tip/tricks.

Yeah, that was my first plan, but ChrUbuntu is a dirty hack.
