I guess here is what I don't understand.

If my son can use Google Drive from a laptop, what's the big draw of the Chromebooks..other than that's what they use in his school as well as at the middle school where I teach?

I asked him and he said that Chromebooks were usually faster, usually cheaper, and didn't have as many problems with virus'. Not sure if this is the case or just something he's using to try and sway me towards a Chromebook grin

Thanks for all the input so far!
