They are nice. I read a piece today that said these devices now have a life of three months before something new comes along... amazing turnover.

The trouble with Chromebooks or tablets in general is they can be Bricks if the internet or power go down since almost everything on them is stored in the cloud which keeps the prices cheap. They require you to have fast AND reliable internet connections... something those in the big city have and can go to the Starbucks if their buildings have a power outage... but for those in rural areas... they can be a problem.
