Even better would be a purpose built laptop/netbook, solid state drive, and the Teradici Tera 2 chip built in. In essence a zero client in a laptop form factor. This would easily beat the performance of the Chromebook even with a native View client, especially on anything video related. With a solid state drive the battery time should be excellent. I am hoping that HP, Dell, Lenovo, or some other manufacturer makes such a device in the $300 range. The only downside is it could not be used off campus unless there is some easy way for whomever has it to join a wireless network.
