What does your desk look like?

Relatively tidier by the second as I get ready for a long weekend, while I faceroll on my KB Paradise V80 w/Matias QC experimenting in the lab with a CentOS 7/KVM & Ceph deployment.

I hate to quote them but it was the easiest thing to find mention of it.

Clearly who wrote that doesn't know what they are saying. Web apps are not traditional apps in what way? Web apps work offline. I want to know what they mean by limited offline capability... that's a meaningless phrase. All computers with networking capability are limited when offline. Traditional apps and web apps both work and don't work, depending on purpose and design, when offline. MS Office 2016 is a web app, does it work offline? Google Apps work offline.
Yes, Chromebooks, like all computers since 1994, are designed to work primarily online.
Basically they just described "computers" with no information specific to the Chromebooks.

I have no function on my Chromebook that doesn't work offline, except for those functions that only exist when online (web browser, SSH, etc.)

Yeah, I get your point but remember reading it on at least one of the tech site's blurbs when they first came out. Maybe it was only the web apps were available at launch? I am not sure.
Edit: Glad to know that isn't a thing now (or ever).

I have custom monitor stands on my desk.....lol

Just got setup in a corner at my parents house for now (no animals or babies to get in the way during the day.) Slightly mobile setup, I say slightly because the entire kit comes out to ~11 lbs.

that's true but, unless you leverage HDD with custom frameworks, webapps which run in-browser have limited standard capabilities compared to desktop apps with cloud backend (say MS office)

At the office and when I work mobile, I use my MBP. At home, I have a whitebox gaming rig, in which I never game with.
I have been tossing around the idea of getting a cheap mobile laptop. Debating on getting a keyboard for my Dell Venue 11 Pro 5130, or getting a chromebook.
Venue Tablet: Atom 1.46 GHz, quad core with 2 GB RAM, and 60 GB SSD drive. Windows 10.
For those with a Chromebook, would to rather have a Chromebook over the tablet listed above?

It really was, not much beats mia's pizza at 3 in the morning when you're beyond frustrated because your code just won't do what you want....
