Built in partnership with the world’s second-largest notebook maker, HP, the $399 notebook runs Google’s Chrome operating system rather than Windows, but otherwise sports an array of features that should be familiar to notebook PC owners, including a laptop power supply that won’t overheat and melt, causing minor property damage to your pillow.

It also comes with a micro-USB charger – so you can charge an Android smartphone or tablet pc– and 2 gigabytes (GB) of RAM, 2 USB 2.0 Ports,  standard HP HSTNN-LB72 Battery, a webcam and Wi-Fi versions a/b/g/n.

The HP Chromebook 11 has an 11.6-inch, 1366 x 768 pixel screen, a 16GB hard drive, a HP Compaq presario cq42 battery advertised to last for up to 6 hours, and weighs a measly 1.04 kilos thanks to its magnesium chassis.

Google claims that users can do most tasks in offline mode when not in reach of an internet connection – a claim that is hotly disputed by Microsoft in TV advertisements, where it says you need to connect to the internet to get “much done” on Chromebooks.
