Hello,
My school librarian said we can't use Chromebooks for school because they don't have enough memory (HDD/SSD memory, not RAM). However, I know Chromebooks are 3 times cheaper than comparably speedy Windows laptops, and they are more secure (because Chrome OS is more secure).
iPads and Surface Pros are also not recommended because "they don't have enough memory".
Also, I've heard Chromebooks can have the SSD changed (if you're willing to void the warranty, which, at Chromebook prices, is a risk I can live with).
Any other advantages to Chromebooks (budget, security, ease of use, etc.) I should mention? It's not that we will be running Windows-only programs, so there's no inherent problem with a Chromebook other than the low memory, which I know the SSD can be modified, and there is always a micro SD or SD card slot.
Thanks!
