Please don’t tell me about Linux apps because I can get those without Google’s help.

“if you’re going to be spending $1000 on a Chromebook”
IF I am going to spend a $1000, I will not get a Chromebook. I will get an HP, Asus or a Dell laptop, wipe the Windows off of it and replace it with a real Linux distro like Slackware, Arch, Debian or Gentoo. Why bother with a wannabe like Chrome OS?
