Since I got one, and apparently no one knows what it is, I'm going to update my post and make it less lame.
If you guys didn't know Google is trying to create a new operating system. They have deemed it Chrome OS. This operating system is designed to totally work on the "cloud".
To test their new operating system they have decided to send out a bunch of test notebooks they call the CR-48.
Here's a few pictures of the CR-48.
It only has one USB, one SD slot, VGA, audio jack, and the charging port.
It is coated entirely with a rubber coating which feels rather nice.
Here's the specs for anyone who cares to know.
No it's not the most powerful machine by any standard, its about as powerful as a gimped netbook, but that's the beauty of it. It doesn't need to store anything because all your information is on the cloud. If it breaks, you get a new one and all your stuff is still there when you sign into your account.
If anyone is interesting in getting one the sign ups are still there.
