What have you got against donkeys?
See? This is why everyone knows, Scruff. Well, this and that old picture you had up on your profile page.
...never knew a donkey could play a vuvuzela like that.

and this aspect ratio ... disgusting. i thought this went extinct years ago
I love the look of the laptop. I even like the aspect ratio. I also like the name.
But the rest -- pricing, OS, the rest -- is utterly ridiculous.
Okay is it just me or do all the new laptops just basically try and look like the MacBook Pro? Large trackpads, same basic design, etc.
Only, google messed up and made it uglier somehow. And they're changing $1300 for it? This would have worked for an Google's April Fools jokes but maybe they actually think this is a good product.
Seriously who is actually going to buy this thing? Because it certainly cannot fill the roles of a development, graphic design or a gaming machine. And if you just want to browse the Internet with a high resolution display, what's wrong with the iPad?
I don't agree with that necessarily, but I do think the industry should be shooting more towards 16:10 monitors rather than 16:9.
Secondly, HOW does Google invade your privacy?
You guys are Good.
They won't unfortunately, for you see the whole reason 16:9 monitors exist is so the manufacturers could merge part of the assembly lines with their TVs.

I feel like I can finally join in on the bashing at this site. This is THE STUPIDEST computer Ive seen released in my life I think. I have to think they have something coming for it to have it make even a little sense.
$1300
5 hours battery
No real OS
No USB 3
32GB storage
Web isnt made for high density displays
Knockoff design
Knockoff marketing
No way to put the Core i5 power to use
Poor touch performance
Most similar sites do that and worse, and your ISP knows every URL you have ever visited. The whole search tracking is meant to improve your own searches in the future and to improve Google search, which I find very helpful. The information is completely anonymous. Check their privacy statement.
"Similar sites" attempt to do a fraction of that, yes. "And worse", though, is pretty much false. Not even Microsoft has the position and the connections to do what Google does.
Yes, search tracking improves your own searches. That does not in any way contraindicate any of the other uses to which they put that history. It is also datamined, as I described.
Their privacy statement does not outright lie, though it does use some very interesting definitions to avoid doing so.

True. Wow, it's rare that you'd find something that sucks so much and costs as much as Apple devices. I didn't even consider that.

Apple market share also started at 0%. I was that guy in swimming class who go the most improvement awards...
