7. So where do CIOs want to use Netbooks ? Employees who require mobility Within departments to those who access web services regularly Handful of employees demanding the technology Widely as most of our services are accessible through the web Not applicable to our business Source: Chadwick Martin Bailley

8. Chromebook | Target Segments Businesses & Educational Institutions Business: Quick, easy access to the tools employees need, all through the browser. In the office and on the go, Chromebooks for Business keep work safely synced, while streamlining IT and eliminating tedious maintenance. Education: Spend more time teaching and learning, and less time managing technology. Chromebooks for Education bring the richness of the web into classrooms and help schools put more computers into the hands of students. Power consumers in industry Google will struggle to sell the netbook to power users, be they from the computer industry or any other industry where specialized computer software is required. Households The Google brand may be sufficient to sell the Chromebook at a slight premium ($65-$100) on its netbook competition, but it seems like a risky move by Google to price it that high in this market.

12. Arena Geographies: Mostly US, Canada, Europe & Japan Market Segment: Small and Medium Business & Educational Institutions Product Categories: Lightweight Business Laptop Value Proposition: Minimal maintenance cloud based office laptop solution hambrick’s diamond Staging Cr-48 Demo Laptop sent to testers for free Pilot run with American Airlines, Groupon etc to understand user requirement and build strong word of mouth publicity.

Frees up IT Budget Cloud : Does not require any installed software (makes updates and antivirus redundant) Value Proposition: Minimal maintenance cloud based office laptop solution App ecosystem: Huge number of productivity apps available through Google Apps Market hambrick’s diamond

14. Economic Logic Economies of Scale: Leverage on the immense computation and storage capacity of Google’s Data Centre. Negligible Maintenance costs: Centrally managed cloud apps do away with massive IT personnel requirements and manual updates. Synergies: Chromebook drives adoption of Google Apps & other Google Services. While massive Google Apps ecosystem acts as a differentiating value proposition for Chromebook hambrick’s diamond

15. Chromebook | Disruptive or Evolutionary? Uses existing technologies in a novel way Browser based cloud OS | Cloud Storage Creates a market for computing devices that do not require a HDD and gets better with time IT infrastructure +services on rent May become a norm in the industry Potentially disruptive

16. Can it cross the chasm?

17. Chromebook | Not quite the winner Google Docs vs MS Office Most business users and their clients still depend on MS Office. Chromebook + Office365 could be a solution but that would increase the TCO Cost of 3G Internet WiFi is not ubiquitous. Accessing apps through 3G will be expensive thereby increasing TCO. Besides 3G is not available everywhere either. Speed Without 3G or Wifi, speeds will be very slow making the device unusable. Besides, 3G speeds aren’t stable either Third Party Apps Dependence on Google and Chrome App Store for Applications can be a deal breaker for users who need other 3rd party apps for their business. Partners Partnering with Lenovo, the market leader in enterprise computing, would have made more sense
