    Chromebook

    Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions on Chromebooks?

    I am considering buying one.

    Seems a little underpowered for me, but it depends on money and what you want it for.

    A Chromebook is a laptop of a different breed. Instead of Windows 10 or Mac OS X, Chromebooks run Google's Chrome OS. These machines are designed to be used primarily while connected to the Internet, with most applications and documents living in the cloud.

    They are low spec and cheap - $300 - $600.

    Anything that relies on a fast, cheap and reliable internet connection is doomed to fail in Australia.
