[QUOTE="Grow Bag, post: 1403047, member: 19077"] I'll second this. You can get a used Thinkpad for the less money you'd pay for a Chromebook or cheap laptop. I have an X201 with an Intel i5 cpu and it's solid, well built laptop and has the best keyboard I've ever used. I run as a dual boot with Win7 and Linux Mint. I only have Win7 for certain programs and rarely boot it. I switched to Linux 15 years ago and have never looked back. I've used a number of different distros and found Mint and Ubuntu Mate the best fit for me. There's a bit of learning curve with Linux, but once you get the hang of it it's a doddle. [/QUOTE]
