Let’s have a look at the much anticipated Google CR-48 Notebook, which is into its Pilot Program [testing phase, you can say]. Right now only lucky few tech geeks can have access to one of those notebooks, which comes with Google Chrome OS, which boots less than 10 seconds, in fact its always connected to internet via Wi-Fi and 3G to access the Google Family products.
See below for the hardware specs:
Processor: Intel Atom Processor N455 1.66GHz 512K Cache
Chipset: Intel CG82NM10 PCH
Motherboard: Tripod Motherboard MARIO – 6050A240910 – MB – A03
Ram: Hynix 2GB DDR3 1Rx8 PC3 – 10600S Ram

Wireless Wan: Qualcomm Gobi2000 PCI Express Mini Card
3g Adapter: AzureWave 802.11 a/b/g/n PCI-E Half MiniCard

Other features include a 12 inch LCD display along with a full sized keyboard and boasts of a webcam for video chat and has a battery life of eight hours and 168 hours of standby time, not bad though.
However, the million dollar question is can it take on the Microsoft Operating System Family - Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Live, which has been Microsoft’s cash cow, remains to be seen.
Touch wood!
