    Hi. So, I'm testing out 2 Chrombooks, Lenovo N22, and Asus 202SA Loving Both. PROBLEM... Autocorrect doesn't work right. I go into Language Input, I click ON Auto-Correct, and no matter which items I select or deselect, when I go to type in a browser page, it Double-Types ever letter. So...

    Model Suggestion ?? Running out of Time & 1st Option is Gone !!! Help!!

    Found a local place to order online both Asus C202SA and Lenovo N22 They are pretty much my only options. Asus C300 or 301, but I'd rather an N3060 than N3160--- I know Quad is better, but the Dual has better Octane results. This way I can test them

    Model Suggestion ?? Running out of Time & 1st Option is Gone !!! Help!!

    Thankfully, on a chrome there doesn't seem to be a big real world difference between the N or U... small blessing for cheap purchase (grin), On these it seems to be very personal and subjective..making it even more difficult. Sadly most of the sites now can't ship before Christmas, and my...

    Model Suggestion ?? Running out of Time & 1st Option is Gone !!! Help!!

    Diddy- So it is true then, for doing things like having many Tabs open at once while working on a document and a Youtube Vid in the background, a faster dual core (ending in U) is likely to outperform comfortably a slower quad core (like N3160, or other duals like Nxxxx)? It's a little tougher...

    Model Suggestion ?? Running out of Time & 1st Option is Gone !!! Help!!

    heya... it's listed as in stock, but that is actually same specs as a Lenovo N22 (new F001 model), but Lenovo is $150 Less and has 4 Hours more battery. I'm really trying to find a 32GB model. And a zippy multi-tasking response. Lenovo I'm drawn to but read some "it's a toy" reviews... I can't...

    Model Suggestion ?? Running out of Time & 1st Option is Gone !!! Help!!

    So, I'm trying to order a Chromebook, on sale, in time for Christmas (yeah 1-2 days left to order where I am). Planned on getting an Acer R11 (CB5-132T), but, it's Bilingual, so, it seems it has extra French Characters on the Keyboard. As a writer, I really don't want extra stuff messing me up...

    Re: Can I use Chromebook "like" a Desktop PC (monitor, keyboard "&" Notifications?) Hi B.Biddy Sorry, my terminology is still a bit confused. I understand a Chromebook goes to Sleep Mode when the lid is closed, BUT if connected to a TV, then it's Docked mode and does it then go to sleep or...
