I was looking for a small, simple, fast and reliable lap top computer and this is it. My previous laptop , an HP Pavillion, with windows 7 seemed to have slowed down even after taking it to the shop for clean up. Also it often was  downloading Microsoft updates, reconfiguring, and doing security stuff just when I wanted to use it.This Samsung Chrome has resolved those problems. Open it , and it is on, Close it and it is off. No start button, hibernate, shutdown needed.It connects with the internet or my g-mail account immediately. It is small, light weight , and inexpensive. Some people might prefer a tablet with touch features, but I love the keyboard and mouse.It uses the cloud for printing and I don't know if I can run Microsoft programs or Turbo tax. I will probably keep the HP for that. But for day to day email and internet it is superb.
