I Own one as well. It's a very great platform if you want to  get your hands
wet with chrome and what it can do.

Subject: Re: [VICUG-L] Are Chrome Books accessible?

Chrome books are quite accessible. The experience is similar to using Chrome
with ChromeVox, so you can play around with that to get an idea of how
things work and whether apps are accessible. The difference is that things
tend to work more smoothly in Chrome OS than in the browser on other
platforms. I don't use mine extensively enough to give an opinion about
whether they can replace a Windows or Apple device. I would say they
probably can, but if I were making the decision for a school, I would test a
Chrome Book for a month, using one to do the kinds of tasks students will be
doing.
