Dell's Chromebook 11 breaks reliance on Google's cloud

Most Chromebooks on the market rely on Google for online services, but Dell’s new Chromebook 11 adds another cloud option to extend file sharing across desktops, laptops, and mobile devices.

The laptop, announced on Wednesday, will integrate Wyse PocketCloud, which allows files to be accessed, edited and shared across PCs, and Macs, as well as Android and iOS smartphones and tablets.

Chromebooks are low-cost laptops for those who do most of their computing on the Web. The Chromebook 11, which will ship in January, has an 11.6-inch screen that can display images at a resolution of 1366 by 768 pixels. It will be priced under $300, Dell said.

The laptop weighs just under three pounds, offers 10 hours of battery life, and has Intel’s dual-core Celeron processor based on the Haswell microarchitecture. Other features include 16GB of storage, USB 3.0 ports, and an HDMI port. The model, which runs Chrome OS, is targeted at the education market.
