Laptop or Chrome Book?
Wifes desktop died, want to replace with laptop. Should I go with a chrome book? Sounds good but I guess everything is out in the cloud, not on a hard drive, right?

Consider what your usage is and what your internet access is. If you travel and are on a limited cellular data plan and you use applications that would normally be installed on the laptop, stay with the laptop to save data usage.
A laptop is best for "creating" data, tablets, etc. are great for just consuming online data.
No, this is not true, add a high capacity SD card, then you can carry plenty of stuff with you, offline. The only thing I don't like is the card does not go completely inside on my Acer 720P.
A Chrome costs 1/3 the price of a Surface Pro 3, Office is also extra - we talk about 700$ or more, lots of money.
