I have said before that I get some emails about good specials.  I know nothing of this computer, but I know that there are some tech people here on the site.  Here is a Chromebook for $169.00 on eBay, direct from Acer.  Maybe you need a spare laptop to do things, maybe you always wanted to try something like this.  Anyhow, here is the deal. So far they sold over 1,000 in 24 hours. Free shipping too!

It was $129.00 yesterday and sold about 2500 units I believe. don't think $169 is a great deal since I believe MSRP is like $199 (I could be wrong so please don't flame)

 

Lots of mixed reviews about the product but generally nice for basic usage.

Well why didn't they send me an email when it was $129.  Geez!!

$169 is still pretty good for an ACER netbook. I had one for about 4 years. So much easier to use for technical stuff than a tablet. I would still jump at that price if I needed one.

 

I used it in school, and also to goof off while at school.
