Message: [QUOTE="Wolfie, post: 115189, member: 18507"] Hi Austin, the biggest downside of a Chromebook V MS OS is the lack of support for certain types of hardware. A good example would be a USB TV stick, I doubt very much that the devs have Chrome OS drivers for them which starts the ball rolling on manually copying [B].inf files[/B] into the firmware folder, not many people would be able to get the TV stick to work!. I am lucky that my USB TV stick (Hauppauge [URL]https://www.hauppauge.com/[/URL] ) does have drivers for Ubuntu based systems. :) As far as cost goes, I would buy either a pre-installed Windows computer or one that has Linux installed. There are many units already out there. 4GB of RAM is nothing these days, buy one with at least 8 and a minimum of a 240GB SSD!. Another problem with Chrome OS is that it is a giant piece of Spyware in my option!, Windows 10 is the same!. :cool: [/QUOTE]
