UI Step

If you:

  • Are a Virtual Machine user
  • Have a need to work remotely
  • Need to take notes in meetings and away from your desk
  • Are okay with things being different than you're used to
  • Can work around some quirks in the operating system that may require you to learn new ways of doing things you're already doing

Then you're ready to give a the Chromebook a try!

UI Step

On the other hand, if:

  • you're a current PC or Laptop user
  • You use Windows specific applications like ArcGIS or Photoshop or InMagic
  • have a need to work offline when you're not connected to the internet
  • you are a heavy user of keyboard shortcuts

Then a Chromebook might not be the best fit for you.
