[QUOTE="509322, post: 779071"] The vast majority of people use a PC for: 1) Web browsing 2) Movies 3) Music 4) Text editing Chromebook satisfies those needs quite well. It's the people that want to game, collect programs and apps, collect large amounts of files, and get into advanced use topics - while representing only a fraction of all users - Windows is more suitable. Windows is overly complex. Windows is quite unsecure. Typical users (across the world as a group, and not just limited to white, middle-class North American and Eurozone users) cannot handle Windows security. Most typical users are better off with Chromebook. The best thing for users would be OEM systems that lock them out of everything. In short, unmodifiable systems off the best security if they are developed with security as a primary goal in the first place. Devices should be dedicated to their purpose for best possible security. A general OS is always going to be R-E-K-T. [/QUOTE]
