Chromebooks are boring

I think I have just discovered what is wrong with Chromebooks. They are boring. They don't do all the fancy things all the other machines do. They can't use all of the cutting edge software the other systems can use. Chromebooks are just plain vanilla. But, sometimes plain vanilla is exactly what you want. Chromebooks maybe boring, but they are perfect if all you need to do is boring thing. Do you need to write? Chromebooks are perfect. Do you need to surf the Internet? Chromebook are perfect. Do you need to publish a blog post? Chromebooks are perfect. Maybe boring is not a bad thing?

Few Chromebook blogs and web sites

If you search for any blogs or sites that are dedicated to Chromebooks, you will not find very many. The reason being is that there is not a whole lot to write about. Chromebooks are about as plain vanilla as you can get when it comes to computers. I know that for some that is not a good thing, but for me it is. It means that Chromebooks work and there is no need to continually tweak them. Since the OS is free, there is no need to keep inventing a new version. Google is not making any money directly from them, so there is no need to play with the revenue stream to generate some profits. There are plenty of blogs and sites for Windows and Mac's. Maybe that is not such a good thing?
