See Chrome Laptop Get Destroyed Repeatedly
I would have eaten that ice cream right off the keyboard.
One of the huge advantages of the Chrome OS is that it puts almost everything on the cloud. This gives you the flexibility to access your data from almost anywhere that has an internet connection, as well as a safer place to leave your data in case of some kind of individual accident.
What kind of accidents? Well, anything could happen. The Google Chrome OS Cr-48 Notebook appears to be very much a notebook like many others, and it can be destroyed just like all the notebooks before it. The key difference is that the physical destruction of the Chrome OS Notebook won't affect your data.
Your Chrome OS laptop could get destroyed in any number of ways – and it's fun to see what are some of those ways:

What happens when your computer gets destroyed? Well, If you were intelligent you'd had at least most of your precious data on some sort of removable device, or already saved somewhere else. You never need internet, and you don't have to worry about losing it. "The Cloud?" No internet... No data.
Revolutionary, but not at all practical.
sorry, 2:48
However instead of an internet connection you would then need whatever storage medium you put your data on (usb drive, CD/DVD, hard disk, etc). And if you leave it somewhere then you cannot access it elsewhere unless you have another copy.
good point, but now adays how many places or people don't have internet?(or internet close bye) however i would agree with you this is better for the city and won't allow you to do anything while traveling without an expensive mobile hotspot.
Better hope you don't forget to take it with you
Personally I'd prefer not to have access to my data from everywhere. I don't want to be expected to be working 24/7.
Always connected
Integrated Wi-Fi for home and work, and 3G for all the places in between. 100MB of free 3G data every month* on the Verizon Wireless network. Affordable data plans with no commitment required
Would be nice if they showed a montage of the other 20 laptops at the end.
Unlike an offline pc.
I think cloud based computing is good only to a certain extend.
Hope to God that it doesn't become the mainstream THING.
