I can understand that but for personal use it's more hassle than it's worth.

It's not that much of a hassle if you get the right model for the right price and if you know what you're doing in it lol.

I can, if I want, get Windows 10 on here, Mac OS, Ubuntu and anything else if I really wanted.

Chromebooks are actually great for office work.
Though, like iOS, they can't run (.exe) and that makes me sad.
Welp, Chromebooks are less likely to get virus'd though.

I was considering getting one before my mac but it doesn't give me what I need, I imagine them to be pretty decent for students with a decent internet connection, haha. I've heard Chrome OS is extremely quick and responsive though. Isn't Chrome OS just like a fancy web browser with all Googles services built in though or have they gone past that stage now?
