I've got one and use it for word processing - you can use Word online free - spreadsheets - Excel the same. Also of course browsing, YouTube etc.
If you buy one you get 200gb cloud storage free for two years. When you start paying its dirt cheap. You also have unlimited photo storage.
You'll have some storage on the Chromebook itself - mine has 32gb - but you're intended to store on the cloud (Google Drive).
Plus they boot in seconds and will never slow down, unlike normal laptops. And they're A LOT cheaper.

Seconded. Love mine. 200 quid. Few things they're a pain for But fantastic for browsing (and sitting on this forum) and generally does all my work stuff (emails, word processing), editing and gaming probably their weakness.
