Thought some here might enjoy reading this, if you use Chrome OS. I will admit that I use none of these 6 features. I don’t really need to. And, I keep a constant wallpaper on all 3 of my Chrome devices (this is the last one listed in the article).

✋ Me! I use a Chromebook as my main laptop, mostly because it’s cheep. ---

Glad to finally see another Chromebook owner here. This section is pretty quiet. ---

I must have missed your post the first time round, glad this update made me look at the article. Bookmarked for future reference! Incidentally, the new Lenovo Duet looks like it could be a stealth bargain for anyone who doesn’t need too much horsepower… ---

My online thing against my Chromebook that I currently have is the storage. It comes with 32GB, 29.4 of which I’ve filled up. ---

The keyboard pulls off like the MS Surface. ---

What do you have on it? It’s not really made to save stuff on the local drive (use the SD card) Unless you have a ton of apps. ---

Apps mostly… I get bored easily, plus when school starts back up I want some downloaded content for the hour bus ride there and back every day. Could we move this conversation to a different topic? It doesn’t really seem like it’s discussing “6 useful Chrome OS features”.
