Small package, great speed & performance
This little box exceeded my expectations. Hooked up to my monitor, turned it on, logged into my gmail account and I was running. Boots up almost immediately. Disconnected my old Windows machine and put it aside because I can do everything I need with this Acer chromebox. Note that you cannot run native Windows programs on this (e.g. Microsoft Office) however you can access the online versions of office.
Performance is great. I would have preferred a faster processor and more memory but have found that they aren't needed. Performance is quick even with many tabs open. Saved almost 50% by buying a recertified version -- excellent value for your money.
Note: the cooling fan is noticeable but not objectionable. I solved this moving the chromebox from my desktop to the carpeted floor beneath my desk.Read full review...

Brilliant little PC at a great price!
It's a Chromebox. It does everything a Chromebox/Chromebook is supposed to, does it quickly, takes up no space under the TV, works with a wireless keyboard, and basically just works. The refurb I received looked almost like new, although it came in a plain brown box. But, it included the tiny-tower, the power supply, the base (which screws on), a serviceable keyboard, and a pretty good mouse. If you didn't want to upgrade anything, you'd still be fine with this unit. Plugged into my 40" Sony TV via HDMI, the picture is beautiful. I use a Logitech 400plus wireless keyboard with built-in trackpad and surf while sitting right on the couch. Perfect.Read full review...

Waiting For Android Apps
I purchased this unit because it is on the Google waiting list for Android Apps coming soon.
Otherwise, the unit is a competent Chromebox with 4GB RAM and it boots up and shuts down in a few seconds. Add a SSD drive for downloads and media storage and the onboard 16 GB flash drive is more than adequate
I chose a Chromebox because my wife needs a large screen and you can't get that with a Chromebook, which we already own.
The cross-platform approach of Chrome/Android by Google will probably morph into some other OS in a few years or months, but this unit is fine for the foreseeable future.Read full review...

Love this new machine!
GREAT Chromebox from Acer! I've used a few others and wanted to try Acer since they are a reputable company. Fast, zippy and easy setup. Love this new machine!

Acer Chromebox CXI2 1.5GHZ
this one is in very poor condition, the interior of the case is already oxidized due to moisture environment, and it is very dusty also.
