"Google is particularly proud of the lack of any visible vents, screws or speakers."
"Google uses the bottom plate as a heat spreader with a bit of thermal interface material making direct contact to the Exynos 5250 SoC."
"It used to be that you’d have to spend tons of money to get a notebook with a good keyboard, Google seems devoted to fixing that."
Interesting how a search for "HP" results in almost no hits in the article text. The quotes above suggest that Google designed the device and HP was nothing more than a dumb OEM. While they've certainly stumbled big time in recent years, I'd still expect their hardware design / manufacturing knowledge to dwarf Google's.
