I feel like I have to weigh in on this as well. Chromebook‘s, are horrible. From the standpoint of somebody who constantly uses their computer all day, makes music, hangs out with people on line, plays games, and web browses. I need a lot of resources. The first of which Google Chrome books don’t necessarily provide. This is, unless, you get it from a vendor that isn’t google in which case you’re paying as much as you would for a Windows laptop, so at that point, it would be better to get one of those. Considering that chrome OS is so locked down in the features are so limited, The Chromebook wouldn’t be much fun. But to each their own, I guess. The general reason Chromebook exists is for people who don’t require much to do. Also, it’s those who want an entry computer at low cost. This is why a lot of school districts have switched to this type of computer. It’s much more budget, friendly, but lacks a lot of features and customization abilities. Something that if you were to become more of an advanced, user you are going to really want.
