Posting from my new chromebook!
I took the plunge over my lunchhour & bought a new Acer chromebook for $199.00. I am now unfettered by having to try to wrest control of the laptop from hubs before I am able to post!
So far, it is able to do everything I want, including photoediting, blogging on wordpress and booklikes, reading with the kindle cloud reader, streaming netflix, using goodreads, writing, and online research.
