• Thinking of replacing my old laptop with a Chromebook. Possibly also get a NAS to take care of storage of general stuff (but also to form part of a hi fi system). I don't think I do anything very complex on the laptop and can't think what MS tools I need (seem to get by with excel/word online).

    Have a nagging feeling I will suddenly find I can't do stuff though. Has anyone else recently made the switch and was there stuff you found you couldn't do?

  • You should be fine as long as you don't use complex software like Photoshop, etc, etc.

    Make sure you get the newer models that support the Google Play App store as it gives access to far more stuff than the Chromebook app store.

    It might be worth waiting a bit as a load of new models are about to appear that will support Play store and support Linux.

    Google seems to of given up on tablets and is pushing Chromebook as the alternative. You get a fair bit of cloud storage with them as well so you may not need a NAS.
