I needed a knockaround laptop to take when I travel.  I used to take my tablet, but more and more I need a full keyboard and a close to full laptop experience.  I don't want to take my work laptop, as I can't risk it.  I've now done a couple of trips with this Chromebook - and it fills the bill.  Is the screen brilliant sharp?  No.  Is it lightning fast? No.  Does it do the job I bought it for?  Absolutely!  And for not too many sheckels.  I rate this a great buy and am glad I picked it up.  Wifi works well.  Battery life is great.  Recharges quick.  I've used it for web surfing, meetings, on-line documents, you-tube watching and movie watching when the hotel options sucked.  If I have any complaint it would be I wish the speakers could put out a bit more volume.
