I am now using Chromebook and I have no problems at all with virus, malware, or Windows because there is no Windows on it. It is lightening fast and has a 9 hr battery capability. There are some drawbacks but not enough to make me go back to Windows for most of my uses.
Don't get caught in this misconception? There is no OS which is immune to some form of Malware. Resistant at best.
I haven't followed Chrome OS for some time. But Kaspersky Labs found a malicious Chrome app that was apparently stealing Facebook credentials. Not sure if there are other examples? Nor if there are any third party security apps even available. If not, you're entirely dependent on Chrome to maintain a secure environment? And trusting they don't miss anything?
