Well

first you should open it, and power it on. Later, when the battery reaches 5% you should plug it in.

second, you should sign in with your gmail account, get your phone ready if you have secondary authentication enabled.

then go ahead and click on the google chrome icon, and you're ready to go!

congradulations, you've got a chomebook :D

If I had one I'd try crouton with xiwi. They have it now so you can run X programs in a chrome window. Don't know how well it works though.

The thing is, you don't have to do a whole lot to a chromebook to start getting the most out of it. Just use it. Browse the web, type things in Gdocs, watch Youtube, shitpost on /g/, etc.

It's not gonna do everything, but that's what your desktop is for.

I just realized I cant use play store on this chromebook, is there anyway around this or am i fucked?

>>62375875
You can if you're running the right version chromeOS.
Have to change some settings around though, google is your friend here.
