I am having an increasingly tough time trying to understand the target market for this device. True Outlook is one of their (few remaining) cash cows and the inherent limitations of this device and new ARM architecture are going to be very limiting.

I am not in the market, but if I were, I fail to understand why someone would not be all over the brand new Chromebook. Heck, even the new 3G model w/ 100MB a month is a steal at $349.

I just don't get who Microsoft is going after here, and I am not sure they are either. Windows 8 is not going to be well-received. The first thing I did with my install was find the utility to bring back a real desktop.
