2012科技界最佳成就大盤點

本刊高級撰稿人Miguel Helft的推薦

????2012年最佳設(shè)備：新款三星Chromebook筆記本電腦。我知道今年市面上涌現(xiàn)出了大量新款的平板電腦和智能手機，而且它們都比去年的型號更快、更薄、更強大。許多產(chǎn)品都非常優(yōu)秀，但我還是更青睞新款的三星Chromebook筆記本電腦。雖然它的先天缺陷很明顯，比如它還算不上是一款功能齊全的電腦，充其量只是一個能上網(wǎng)的窗口。不過考慮到它只賣２５０美元的白菜價，這個窗口算是一個相當不錯的窗口了。它的外觀和感覺跟“超極本”差不多，開機很快，而且永遠不需要升級。況且價格還很便宜，隨便就可以買兩三個放在家里。

????Best device of 2012: The new Samsung Chromebook. I know, there are gobs of new tablets and phones, and they're all faster, thinner, lighter and sharper than last year's models. Many are great. But I'm going to go with the new Samsung Chromebook. The limitations are obvious. This is not a full-fledged computer, just a window onto the Web. For $250, however, it's a very nice window indeed. It has the look and feel of an ultrabook. It starts up fast and never needs upgrades. And it's inexpensive enough that you could have two or three lying around the house.
