70. December 2012: Acer Chromebook C7

Google’s Chromebook “cloudbased laptop” format hasn’t quite set the world on fire yet. In fact, it’s not even rubbed some Deep Heat into its legs. Acer’s latest hopes to change that, however, with a backpack-friendly, 1.4kg, 25mm-deep frame, 11.6-inch, LED-backlit screen, Intel Celeron 847 processor and 2GB of RAM. You get a 320GB hard drive, with another 100GB of Google Drive space up in the cloud.

Price: £199 | Acer.com | Out now
