A laptop with touchscreen and less functionality than an average tablet.
It will be a hit.

"We’ve done tons of user testing on this, and it turns out it doesn’t work. Touch surfaces don’t want to be vertical. It gives great demo but after a short period of time, you start to fatigue and after an extended period of time, your arm wants to fall off. it doesn’t work, it’s ergonomically terrible. Touch surfaces want to be horizontal, hence pads." Steve Job

I bought my girl the little Samsung Chromebook. That little laptop is the shit when you're using web apps. Killer battery life and plenty of juice to get things done.

Why doesn't it have a competent OS?

^ re: the steve jobs quote. That's fine and all when you are talking about heavy tasks. If it's just making a selection real quick, I don't mind.
- Every screen will be a touchscreen eventually, probably.raf

I think it looks great, though in no way do I want one. It's far too limiting. And expensive. Just get a Mac Air.
Though for many, if it was cheaper, I'd say this could be a huge hit.
