What is a Chromebook?

A Chromebook is a laptop or tablet that uses Chrome OS as its main operating system. In contrast with a traditional laptop, most activities on a Chromebook are performed in the Chrome browser, with the bulk of data stored in the cloud, rather than on the machine. These are very popular in the education space because they are comparatively inexpensive to purchase and to maintain.
