HP Chromebook 11

Initial impressions (probably all negative): What's the deal with "Just because it looks cool?" A 640x480 webcam in 2013 seems kinda sad (people have become obsessed with video chats these days, quality matters). Using stylized curse words in the copy? Childish. The font on the page is way too small—people have big screens and bad eyes (plus, lots of words/details/reading trying to figure out what/why this things exists).

What's the advantage of this thing over a tablet with an external keyboard?

Tablet + keyboard price > chromebook 11's price

This laptop could be a gateway for kids as they need a entry device that parents can afford.

Am I the only one who sits on a couch anymore? There's no way I'm juggling a tablet, something to prop it upright with, and a bluetooth keyboard in my lap all at once.
