Can you run/download adobe programs?
Can you run and download adobe photoshop, lightroom, indesign and things like that on this laptop?
If you want to use Adobe programs, I wouldn't go with a Chromebook. I am not completely positive, but I want to say, no, they won't run Adobe Photoshop or anything like that. They are mostly used for Google apps, Google docs, surfing the net, Netflix, etc. You really can't "install" programs onto a Chromebook.
