So the only difference between this and a chromebook is that it runs office?


That depends entirely on your vantage point.

As the average end user, yes one key difference is that the system can actually run one of the three applications that you use on a daily basis. We also allow the user to continue using a file system that she is comfortable with, making adoption easier. Other differences are by design transparent.

From the perspective of a more security aware user, they will immediately notice that their data is cleartext _only_ when they are using it locally and only they have the capability to access their cleartext data.

As a developer, you may appreciate the underlying integration with your system. But this of course remains to be seen (as others have pointed out, we have not yet made any code public).
