Looking myself between this particular model, an asus chromebook and a bit more expensive asus one. I suppose it really depends what you need to laptop for. I am just not a big fan of working in the cloud and trying to get along with google docs is a nightmare for me. But everyone to it's own...
I was thinking of get that laptop but ended up getting this one:
ASUS F555LA-AB31 Review For You? Or Is This...
How is your laptop working out for you?
Depends on what you want. You can get a used one, from under $100. Dell has recently done one, which is quite good. But if it is just for browsing I would go for a cheap one, or a refurbished one. If it is for gaming you definitely will need to spend some more money.
