This is the third Chromebook we have purchased as a gift for people in our family who can't keep up with the maintenance, esp the constant need to buy virus software for regular laptops.  It's a wonderful machine, great value. We bought a couple for our home when they first came out a few years ago and they are still working great!This machine is great for young kids!  We have wasted a small fortune over the years buying $1500+ laptops only to have them wrecked by messy toddlers and all of the viruses and spyware that are lurking on the free kids-game sites.
