This sounds like a very good option for casual users. I went to best buy to look at laptops and the young salesmen pointed out something not mention here, that the Chrome book is much faster because it does not have all the programs to load up and because of this the Chromebooks would stay faster compared to laptops because of the added memory required to run these newer programs over the next 5 or so years.
Yes, that is true but the same is true if you run Google Apps on a laptop. I use Google apps on all my devices, no apps to update or install. They are always updated on the Google cloud. Of course the same will be true eventually with Microsoft apps as they move into the cloud environment.
MS already has their apps in the cloud and have for quite a few years. Just as Google's apps are available from Google Drive, MS apps are available from OneDrive. Just signup for a free OneDrive account and you will have access to MS cloud apps for free, just like Google.
