Amazing
I spent most of my life using Windows, and the last 4 years using MacOS. I wasn't really sold on the idea of Chromebooks ("Why would I buy a computer that's just a browser?") but after trying one I may never go back. Handling everything online erases all the headaches that usually come with owning a computer. It's fast, secure, easy to use (even as a tech geek, it's nice knowing something's just going to work). I'm a writer, and this has easily become my main computer for both work and play (Google Docs easily replaces Word, and Android apps make it much better for gaming than I originally expected). The touchscreen looks good and is responsive, and the keyboard is nice. The battery life is great (I get about 9 hours). My only complaint is the click on the touchpad feels a little cheap, but I just use "tap to click" so it's not an issue. Overall I love this machine, and all my computers will probably be Chromebooks in the future.
