Google Chromebook Pixel
Released on 02/27/2013
[Narrator] Like a high-end exotic sports car,
the Chromebook Pixel is blazing fast,
expertly designed, lovingly built,
and too highly priced for most sane people.
It runs on Google's Chrome OS
which is essentially just a Chrome browser
with a desktop wallpaper and the ability
to download offline functionality for some web apps.
The nearly 13-inch Gorilla Glass display is
the Pixel's marquee feature.
It's gorgeous and packed with more than four million pixels
which is more than any other laptop out there.
It's also a touchscreen which makes navigating
around the web a lot more fun.
And despite the screen being glossy,
fingerprints rarely show up.
The glass touchpad and the black keyboard
are among the best I've ever used.
Ports are kept to a minimum
and there's no DVD drive.
All the screws on the Pixel are hidden,
and the gunmetal gray aluminum body is plain badass.
The hardware is among the best you can get on any laptop,
but with an operating system that is basically
just a browser and a price tag
that's as high as $1,450.
Don't expect to see too many Pixels
at your local coffee shop.
After all, you don't see too many Lamborghinis
driving down the street.
