Is there an harddisk in the chrome-os notebooks? 1 points by naughtysriram 15y ago ↗ HN Those videos say all your data goes to the cloud. What if I were in a place where there is no internet and I want to work offline?
[–] obilgic 15y ago ↗ there is hd - more info : http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/chromiumos-design-docs/d... [–] naughtysriram 15y ago ↗ but all the applications are in the cloud..!!! so how can one use them without an internet connection? [–] iamdave 15y ago ↗ Modern technology has invented this process called caching. [–] naughtysriram 15y ago ↗ Chrome-os notebooks a.k.a social laptops unlike personal laptops. I think these next-gen notebooks are good for internet kiosks/browsing centers. If everything is in the cloud, then there is nothing personal which itself is a privacy breach.
