¿Should You Buy Your First Chromebook?

[Vince]

Folks, I'm drooling over the low prices of older, unused Chromebooks. They don't have touchscreens, which means that they will have difficulty using Android apps when they become available. But if you only want to surf the web with them, you can get some pretty good prices.

The current idea is that your next Chromebook should be a "2-in-1." It should have a laptop keyboard that swings out of the way so that you can use the touchscreen for Android aps. A major purpose of this is that you can play Android games, which usually require a touchscreen.

It occurred to me that for less money. you can buy a regular Chromebook laptop that will be able to run Android aps. With the money you save, buy an Android tablet.

My wife purchased an Insignia 8 inch tablet with Chrome on it so I can answer the Gate, I like Chrome.
