I had a Chromebook that a poster on here Tomwed convinced me to buy and it served us well but it got legs on the move to Florida. When we got here I bought an HP $300 laptop from Walmart because I was trying to cut corners and have been unhappy with it ever since. I really think its because I am not comfortable with Windows 10. I am better off with an Apple even if it costs more it is ready to go when you need it. I had to take my 7-year-old iMac to the Altamonte Springs store because I had a snafu after an update and they sold me an external backup that plugs into my machine so if the same problem ever occurred again I could fix it my self. They carted my computer from the parking lot into the store, repaired and returned it to my car for free. Oh, they told me don't run Norton anymore. Apple is the way to go but it isn't cheap.

Hi Nucky,
How are you? It's been a year since I dropped in. I searched my name---and found this thread. 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. |

I've not had a problem in over 10 years with Norton Utilities and I am on a lot.

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. |
