So I finally jumped the bandwagon and tomorrow i'll pick up my Chromebox!
Got very excited about the box after reading through this thread (and the annoucement thread) !
I just have one question before i'll start setting it all up:
Is the high CPU usage only gone when using a stand-alone setup or also when using a dualboot setup (OpenElec + ChromeOS)?
I think I want to start with a dualboot and also see what ChromeOS is all about, but if that means the device performs suboptimal i'd rather just go with a stand-alone setup.
Can't wait to get started tomorrow !
standalone = no issues
dual boot + 2GB ram + OE/Ubuntu = high CPU (Arch doesn't have an issue?)
dual boot + 4GB + OE = no issues (Ubuntu still does apparently?)
Tnx for the quick reply!
I'll go with the stand alone for now then (i have the 2GB version).
