Thanks for the printing information. I currently run two wifi networked printers so I'm assuming I would be able to use them with a chromebook.

I haven't yet tried to connect my Chromebook to my desktop, although I have used my Chromebook for remote access to my desktop. The one thing you can't do is to use a printer connected directy to the Chromebook via USB. If your printer has its own IP address or if your printer is connected to a computer on the internet, you can print.

You can use the Amazon Cloud reader, and I believe that you can download books to be read in offline mode, so it's not a pure cloud reader.

I'm pleased with my Chromebook. It starts up fast, and has good battery life. They have added more offline capability, but I mostly use it at home where I have WiFi available.
