I’ve installed Windows on a SSD, and it certainly doesn’t boot in anywhere near 7 seconds.

I added my Drive folder to the File Manager too, but don’t see how to mark specific files for offline use/viewing.

Also, have you heard any rumors about Google enabling offline editing of the Google Docs spreadsheets and presentations?

At 70 cents per gigabyte it was a relative bargain, so to speak. More impressive is the performance – Windows 7 boots in seconds, I get up to an extra hour of battery time and enjoy more storage than I’d have from any other device, including free cloud storage offerings. I like to call it NOS for your netbook!
