cheap, snappy, but limited

PROS:
* The cheapest Chromebook with 4GB of Ram. You need it to keep your streaming music, Google searches and open tabs running smoothly.
* Cortex A17 I know its a random brand, but its makes for a snappy quad-core processor. Compared the next Chromebook, which offers a dual- core Intel Celeron processor, isn't enough for me.
CONS
*Limited streaming capabilities. I don't recommend this Chromebook for web browsing while you've got your Chromecast going. It creates a lot of lag and low picture quality.
*Buffering. If you got two kinds of media going at the same time, say a news video comes up while you've got music going, the computer stammers hard. It can't handle two media processes at once.
Overall
If you're a cheapo like me, get it. Btw, did I mention it's tiny and blue. Haha.
