I've been using #Chromebooks since the start, and it's absolutely astonishing how far these things have come over the past decade.

Equally astonishing is how many people STILL misunderstand #ChromeOS and think it's exactly the same as it was in 2011.

That's why I put this little "quiz" together — to have something to send folks when they ask me if they should use a Chromebook and if it's true that ChromeOS can't do x, y, or z.

Pretty handy. Feel free to use it, too!

@jr it is incredible isn’t it? If you are a Linux desktop user you can use a Chromebook for pretty much everything that you normally do on a daily driver laptop.

Yet reading articles, watching YouTube videos and reading comments in social media you’d think a Chromebook is just a browser.

@gpowerf So true, on both fronts. An almost comical level of lingering misperceptions out there in this area.
