I have a Samsung Series 5 Chromebook. I like it, but I don't love it. There are a few issues that piss me off to no end. Chief among them is that the thing gets stuck in sleep mode probably greater than 50% of the time. When you buy a $250 laptop, you kind of say to yourself, "You get what you pay for." But spending $1300, fuck that. Google, apparently, can't figure out this sleep mode issue, and its not specific to the Samsung, according to everything I've read, so they will have some upset customers at that price.
