Update: I love my Chromebook. I am enrolled in an online Master of Science in Nursing program and this computer does everything the course requires. Google Drive/Docs is a lifesaver. I can save all my work on the cloud and access it anywhere. The battery lasts around 8 hours. I never run low in a single day use. The computer NEVER runs hot. I don't even think it has a fan. No burning on my lap like my MacBook does.There is still a place for my MacBook. I put photos and print on my MacBook. I can do this on the Chromebook, but it requires setup of a cloud printer. My printer is a few years old so it doesn't have that feature.Just got it in the mail today and I love it!! It does about 95% of what I do on my MacBook. This is great because I use my laptop mostly for browsing the web. I am able to work on documents with Google Drive and attach them to emails. And it never gets hot and burns my thighs.
