I'm in nursing school. Tired of carrying books around, my school has the "buy the book in PDF" option available. I'd love to have four 10lb books in my computer as a PDF then on my back...
Problem: I was thinking the most affordable option would be a chromebook (seeing as I have a gaming desktop as my media center and would only use the laptop for netflix, reading / studying in class).
BUT. I was doing reading that the chromebook doesn't do well with this task of textbook PDFs. 1000+ pages of PDF per book. I need to be able to highlight sentences on pages, bookmark stuff, make tabs etc. I know there are 3rd party aps for PDF viewing / editing, but I've read nothing but problems on the internet about it. And the resounding answer has been "GET A REGULAR LAPTOP"
I like the chromebook not only for their cheaper price, but slim, light weight, and attractive form.
Can someone help me make a good choice. Thank you!
