BIG shock - this morning the speakers were shut off, and were not to convince to turn on
rebooting (several times) didn't help,
I checked the helpsites and found here the advice to re-install Chrome-OS - I DID create a re-installation thumb drive, but wasn't ready to risk (or try out) to re-install Chrome-OS
so I went back in mind, what did I change recently?
oh YES, I added the >Enable accessibility features< unchecked the >Enable accessibility features< , rebooted and voila, speakers are back on their job :::happydance:::

Acer Chromebook's first run
today my Acer Chromebook arrived:
box - nicely small
as I don't read a lot of instructions, I put the battery in, attached it to it's power supply, waited till it was fully loaded (which was amazingly fast) and
turned in ON - it guides you through the initial set-up process
Steps:

Steps:
- find your wireless network (ok this I knew how to do)
- type in the password of your wireless network - OMG, where do I find this??? - after 90 minutes of desperate searching I finally looked UNDER my modem - yes, there it was
- login with you gmail/ google account (and do NOT start a guest session - these don't have any admin privileges at all)
- enjoy :-) - Chrome synchronizes EVERYTHING (ok mostly everything) of the settings you have in your Chrome-Browser on your "big" PC/ Schleppi
- and *happydance* my wireless mice (Logitech and HP) DO work with the Acer Chromebook, without having to install any software
