Need Chromebook suggestion
I don't know if chromebook is just like laptop. I am confused as I think all we do on chromebook is online. Can someone please help if that's the case or not

I would recommend, as a fan of Ubuntu and LinuxMint, the Chromebook of Acer instead of other Chromebook. Only that will allow you to install Ubuntu /LinuxMint or other favors of Linux if you somehow do not like the lack of native applications on the Chromebook

no... its closer to the laptop side.walker2238 wrote: ↑If you're just doing basic tasks it good. There are basic things you can do offline like watch movies, Google Drive (Office suite). Gmail has a offline mode as well. You can read e-books, use certain apps like Google Keep, Pocket and a few games as well.
There's actually quite a bit off apps that have offline modes as well. Pixlr to edit photos, NYT, Reddit client and a few other news sources also have offline mode.
Best way to describe a Chromebook IMO is a cross between a tablet and a laptop... But closer to the tablet side.

Certainly doable, but keyword practical which unfortunately it's not (yet).walker2238 wrote: ↑IMO == In my opinion.
You can code on a Chromebook. Check out /r/chromeos on Reddit and there's a bunch of helpful information on the subject. Obviously there will be limitations though depending on what you want to do.
