Archive.org versionPeople who love ChromeOS, but don’t want to pay over $1,200 for the Pixel, should look at the Acer Chromebook 15 with the Intel Core i3 processor. If you like the idea of a large system, but don’t want to pay over $400, then take a look at the cheaper version with an Intel Celeron 3205U Broadwell processor, the next generation after the Haswell in the popular HP Chromebook 14 and Acer C720 Chromebook.
