Using a Chrome laptop right now. I like it a lot. For browsing the Internet, doing email, it's perfect. Starts up a lot faster than our other laptop.

@Poppies I'm more used to Windows computers. I've been told Chromebooks are very good, but the OS lacks some of the features of Windows

@Poppies Is it shiny because it`s Chrome? 😬

@ThunderDome2 It's a little different. For example, I couldn't just copy and paste the way I was used to, which drove me crazy for a while. But then I figured out how to do it with a Chromebook and I just do it the Chrome way automatically now. You can actually do it the same way in the Windows environment if you want to.

@Poppies Yeah, I've only ever used Windows computers, so might stick with them ! There are some cheap Chromebooks though that might be worth checking out. So I might try one of those sometime

@ThunderDome2 If I can adapt to Chrome, anyone can!

@Poppies Oh it's more a case of not much benefit really to getting one. Apart from I think they allow access to Google play store? not sure

@Degbeme It is a pretty silver, but more of a matte!
