You're not a Power User anymore.

It’s not easy to face, we know. But you’ll be better off facing it now. Take a good, hard look at yourself. Be honest about your laptop usage, no matter how humdrum the reality might be. Otherwise, you’d only be lying to yourself.

How much of your laptop use, in total, is browsing the web, checking email, and watching streaming video? And how much of the rest is basic word processing, spreadsheets, note taking - that kind of thing?

If that’s pretty much all of it - and it probably is - good news! You’re a regular user now!

It’s not that you’ve changed. It’s that processing power has gotten so much better. It’s that so much of what we used to do with cumbersome, resource-intensive software is now done in browsers or with light apps. It’s not you. It’s tech.

Your lack of power is to your advantage, because power comes at a price. Hardcore PC gaming comes and broadcast-quality video editing capability come at a steep price. A price you won’t have to pay.

All you need is a sturdy, lightweight, reliable, and most of all cheap machine with a screen you don’t mind looking at, and a decently long battery life. You see where this is going. What you need is a Chromebook. And not the $1,300 Chromebook Pixel. A cheaper, smaller Chromebook. This Chromebook.

You’re not alone. Some 800 5-star Amazon reviews prove that Power User status isn’t all its cracked up to be. They especially love the display, which makes the 5-star reviews make sense: it’s the part of the computer you spend a lot of time looking at.

Earlier this year, Anandtech called this model “a feast for the eyes” in an epic 5,000-word treatise. This magisterial paean includes over a dozen graphs (!), and concludes by awarding this Chromebook “Recommended by AnandTech” status.

See? You can lead a rich, full life without spending one minute figuring out how to dual-boot Ubuntu. Sticking with this cheap, light, sturdy Chromebook with the great display is like refusing to buy a pair of pants with three legs. Why pay for more computing power than you will ever use? With great Power Usage comes great financial responsibility.
