For portability, simplicity, sleek design and all day computing, at a price that everyone can afford, without a doubt, Chromebook is your answer.

If you are like me, and work mainly on the Chrome browser, updating your blog, checking emails, scheduling your day on the calendar and working on spreadsheets and documents, then you are probably ready for an entirely new operating system, the Chrome OS. As the name suggests, the operating system by Google is based primarily on the Chrome Browser.

With tonnes of apps in the Chrome Web Store, there is really nothing that you can’t do on the browser. There is even Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and Outlook from Microsoft and Office Online extension for Chrome which lets you access the cloud version of the popular Office suite from Microsoft. There is really nothing you cannot do on Chrome.

And if you have the urge to edit photos or carry out a spot of graphic design on your Chromebook, there are a handful of photo editing and design applications too. These cloud based image editors are as powerful as PhotoShop and they are free.
