Could this be my next computer?

in #technology7 years ago

My 2013 Macbook air is getting tired - the fan comes on as soon as I start watching a video and frankly I'm getting a little bored of it.

I've used chromebooks in the past and enjoyed the frictionless feel that comes from them. With near ubiquitous wifi (and the ability to generate a hotspot nearly anywhere), the old issue of a chromebook being a brick while offline is history.

Obviously a pixelbook would be lovely, and there are rumours of new pixelbooks coming this year, but they are pricey. I saw news of this new Dell Inspiron CB today and wondered if the steemit community have any views? In particular, if any of you have 2-in-1s like this one, how often do you use it in tablet mode and what do you use that for?

Look forward to reading your thoughts.
