New Member - Cr-48 Tester

[[pi]]

Hey all, I go by [pi]. I received my Cr-48 on December 20, however I didn't start using it until the 21st for various reasons.

So far I've adapted quite well to using a browser-only computer. The only thing I've found myself missing so far is Minecraft. My /r/minecraft time has increased substantially in the past few weeks because of this.

I'm open to any suggestions/tips/etc on how to work with Chrome OS more optimally. I've pretty much found myself using Pandora, Google Talk, and a few minor websites occasionally.

Definitely open to good app recommendations, especially one that can handle AIM. If there is one that treats AIM messaging in panes like Google Talk, I'd love it.

Anyway, I have a Nexus One (still waiting for Gingerbread?) in my pocket. I know that's a question I should also address.

Thanks all!

Thanks for the welcome, dandroid!

While I am currently using my Cr-48 exclusively, I feel I may not be doing enough for a valid beta test. Sure, I'm doing more than people who received one and aren't using it/sold it, but I actually want to contribute as much as possible. Do you have any suggestions on things to do to optimize my feedback? Links to threads that give a Beta Testing FAQ experience? In my brief browsing of the site, I haven't come across one.

Currently, this is what I do with the Cr-48: Gmail, Google Talk, Google Voice, Pandora, Facebook, Reddit, Wikipedia, forums (Overclock.net, this forum), xkcd, Woot!, and steepandcheap. I've also uploaded items to my Dropbox to stream MP3 songs when I don't want to use Pandora.

Thanks!
