      But the old thought of using a $300 Chromebook - will just end in sadness of crap performance from my experience.

      Definitely not true. $300 Chromebook will often run circles around a $800 Windows box. It's not a speedy device, but it has extremely little to do.

        I don't see this.

          Mine is only $179 and I have no performance issues whatsoever. It's snappy. Very snappy. And that's two years old and already being abandoned by Google, and still that good. It doesn't even have an OP-1 in it.

          I have a friend who just bought a new Chromebook for the same price as that and it's even nicer, of course. I can only imagine how fast a $300 one would be!

            My wife's was ~300$ actually a bit less when it was on sale two years ago. It's fast and able to run basically anything on the play store.

              So, what is it? I'm needing to order something today or tomorrow and wanting recommendations. SO far I have a $600 recommendation.

                This is the one I bought my wife a few years ago. I like it a lot. She does a lot of work on it. I'm sure there is an upgraded version of it by now.

                I'm pretty sure this is the one my mother users: Dell 5190

                  Heard more from the user.

                  Would prefer 15" screen and a numeric keypad... /sigh..

                  Found this one. https://www.amazon.com/Acer-CB715-1W-P4Y6-Chromebook-4417U-Chrome/dp/B07W996BQ5

                  Anyone have a comment on it?

                  Only 32GB, but it is supposed to be only for browsing and ScreenConnect.

                    Mine was an Asus, but it is off of the market. My friend had a Lenovo that she got at Best Buy. I don't know the model number, but I played with it for a bit and it was really nice. Regular laptop, with flip around screen and touch screen all for $179 in December.

                      32GB is PLENTY. I don't even need the 16GB that I have. And 8GB of RAM, that's a monster of a Chromebook. Should be way, way fast enough. Just really expensive is all.

                        Mostly it is the form factor, I think, 15” with the numeric keypad

                          True, the extra size brings up the price quite quickly.
