I've found it an uphill battle, but I'll continue to promote the Chromebook.
If what you use your computer for is to be online (banking, email, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) which 99.9% of us do, why not use a device that is secure, safe just plain works!
With a Chromebook you never need virus/malware protection, you never have to wait for an update to download and/or install.
Need spreadsheets and documents?, it has "Calc", and "Docs", Google's version of Excel and Word, need other software, Google is adding new apps all the time to run on newer Chromebooks.
Even if you still "need" a Windows PC/Laptop, only use it when you really have to and use the Chromebook the rest of the time, like I do.
When ever the Villages Computer Clubs have a workshop, I have a table there showing off the Chromebook, come see it next time.
(Google Connected Villages and look at the schedule/meetings and then go to the other clubs links and look at those).
