I bought an Acer Chromebook model R11. I paid $140 and bought it in the scratch and dent department on the Acer site. Within a year the battery died and I'm shopping for one now. It fell and the touch screen stopped working. And the mic was not very good at picking up my voice from day 1. I was too lazy to send it back when it was under warranty. What I like about it is that besides running Chrome it also runs Android like my Smart Phone. I can download apps. I still think it's great and at that price point it's a disposable. As someone else said you can't get a virus and I'm used to storing 99% on-line. I have 4gb of RAM. I would not get any less. Take a look.
Glad to hear from you tomwed, hope all is well with you. Living here turned out to be fantastic and I never got a chance to thank you for your help with good info in making the big move easier.

I really don't think you can go wrong with any Chromebook but as you pointed out I looked at mine as disposable, it was cheap.

Take Care tomwed, good to hear from you.
