Looking to sell off my HP ChromeBook 14 (4GB RAM).
Runs that Linux based ChromeOS from Google. :)
Is less than 2 months old.
Am willing to part with it for INR.20,000/-
Why do you want to sell it, Mayuresh? Was it unsuitable for the use you
had
intended to put it to? Was it underwhelming in capabilities?
How was your experience with ChromeOS? Is it up to the hype? How does
it
match with user needs, in your view, in the Indian context? What would
be
the best use case scenario for it?
It would be great to know about these things from your point of view.
The ChromeBook was purchased for my father who can't be considered a
power user.
It isn't unsuitable, just that he fell in love with his newly purchased
smartphone.
I wouldn't call the ChromeBook underwhelming in any of it's
capabilities.
The ChromeOS experience is really great, absolutely harmonized hardware
and software.
Yes, it is totally up to the hype and matches it's intended purpose,
i.e. a machine primarily for "using" web services.
I can't keep it because it would be a dead investment for me, I am a
software developer and the only development one can do with the
ChromeBook running ChromeOS is using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Google's
Dart.
