There is no downside - there is a thing called crouton which allows you to boot into Linux - I have heard you can simply hotkey between the chromeOS and the linux but I am waiting for the £125 Dell chromebook which comes out in Feb to give it a tryHi Guys Referring back to a recent discussion about laptops upgrades etc. As you will be aware I bought an HP server which will do the work of storing docs, movies, music, photos etc. However, I still need to purchase a second laptop at some point and I am wondering what do folks think of Chromebooks. I recently read this article: <http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/01/10/2014_chromebook_surge/> I did get me thinking of it as an option. The downside is being tied into Google's infrastructure. Any comments please?
It does look like we are at last getting netbooks!http://www.howtogeek.com/162120/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-your-chromebook-with-crouton/
