Without knowing enough about Chromebooks, I bought one. I wanted a laptop and
this 15" model was cheap. Now I have buyer's remorse. (I don't need a laptop and
I don't need the extra debt.) Therefore, if anyone is interested I am selling my
very slightly used Chromebook plus a 2-year care plan for $200. I'll ship it to you if
you want it. Here are some details:


And here's a little pro/con article about Chromebooks:

I'd love to own one, but I can't, I do have $200, but it's on My credit card only.

Credit cards can be used to pay in many ways, most notably, with PayPal. I have a
PayPal account so anyone with a credit/debit card can send me money.

Just sayin'.

Vic, you have much better things to spend your limited money on.

(Which is not to say Sue doesn't need the money for good reasons as well.)

You might try posting it on E-bay. Just put a starting price high enough you would be willing to sell it for that. The "reserve" option is to expensive.

I already have one. Its my primary non-Seti machine (everything else is running Seti). I can even do a little Front End Web development on it since it speaks html, css and JavaScript all natively. You can use something like the TxT editor for the coding. All local.
