The last Chromebook I owned was the OG Chromebook Pixel. I loved that thing, battery life starting going so got rid of it and have missed having a Chromebook.

Got mine Wednesday ...it`s my 1st foray into Chrome/Pixelbook. This machine is just gorgeous and so bloody fast too. I`m finding it pretty straightforward to use Chrome/Android mix,taking a little getting used to but this Pixelbook is such a pleasure to use,I totally love it
I've had mine since Nov. 4th and absolutely love it. I use it everyday and coming from a surface pro 3 I don't regret switching not even one bit.
I got mine yesterday for nearly half the original price £549. It was on an offer for £750 and I traded in my own MBP (2011) for £200 against it. It was worth trading that laptop in as it hasn't been used in about a year.Joined the Pixelbook bandwagon today. I've been toying with the idea for a while now. Aging MBP (2011) that is not handling latest macOS very well (haven't even turned it on in weeks) plus recently acquired Pixel 2 and figured what the heck. Had an older Chromebook that I've been using in the evenings quite regularly and had a chance to play around with one at BestBuy a few weeks ago. Really a nice machine. I think it is a tad over-priced, but it really is great hardware. Might get a "pen" someday, but we'll see how well I get along without it.

Yeah, my aging MBP (also a 2011 that I maxed out spec-wise), after having its logic board replaced under warranty roughly two years ago, died again, this time due to the dedicated graphics card. I can turn it on, but all you see are a bunch of lines. Battery is also shot, only able to get 4 hours at a time if I don't have many tabs open. It is past warranty this time, and it just is too expensive to fix. So, if you saw the other thread, pulled the trigger on the highest spec Pixelbook model, and am salivating to start it up and get it through its paces.
For a number of you that have had it for the last few months, what are things you like about it? Any tips?
