Jim and I each purchased a Chromebook Pixel this year — after outgrowing our first-generation Chromebooks.
We’ve used our regular Chromebooks for the past 3 years every single time we traveled.
Chromebooks are ideal mostly because they’re so lightweight and easily packable (…especially on our motorcycle trips where space is at a premium).
However, since our jobs are Internet-based, we often have several tabs open in the Chrome browser at the same time. Many of those tabs include high-intensity graphics and videos — which demands a lot of processing speed. Thus the need for a better, faster Chromebook.
Enter the Chromebook Pixel.
