Hi

I'm looking for a new laptop or chromebook to replace an old one. It will mostly be used for browsing the web, watching netflix etc. and I have a separate desktop for gaming/MS office. I'm considering chromebooks but unsure whether I'd be better off with a low end laptop?

I'm looking for something that's quite responsive and has the best screen possible (bigger is better but I also want a decent quality picture). Some of the reviews I've read suggest that many chromebook screens aren't much good - are there any exceptions?

I've been looking at the Samsung Chromebook 2 13.3" - is that a good option or would I be better off with a windows based laptop? If so, which windows machine is best at this price point?

Thanks
