I don't have much respect for Acer as a manufacturer. I'm surprised that Google chose them instead of, say, Asus.

And I'm uncomfortable with the amount that Google knows about me already; I'd have to read the privacy policy very carefully before I used their machine.

I admit that most people just don't care. (And maybe they're right; Google aren't particularly evil.)

I guess it'd be interesting to see when the Russian criminal gangs start selling cheap computers with well-crafted nasty rootkits pre-installed.
