Quick thoughts:
  • This exact model was on sale in February for $220 and deal got +29 (thread here). This deal is $20 less.
  • At Best Buy I'm seeing Open Box for as low as $180 -- I've had really fantastic luck with these, as they are usually in seemingly brand new condition.
  • I'd like to experiment with a 17" Chromebook but this one is too underpowered for my needs. Acer has this [bestbuy.com] model with N6000 processor and 8GB of RAM that I'd like to try but I've never seen it go on sale (retails for $500).

I bought this laptop several weeks ago when it was on sale for 250. I ended up returning it a week later because when using a bluetooth mouse it would sometimes over scroll when scrolling. Tried 3 different mice, same issue. other than that it worked fine for my needs. I replaced it with the Lenovo Duet 5.

Sounds like a settings issue. You can adjust this pretty easily.

I played with the settings for mouse and track pad, that didn't help. No scrolling issue with track pad. Even did a powerwash. I do not have that issue with the Lenovo.

Maybe it's just me, but when I had a celeron as a kid it just hit different. It meant hours of futility with a whole lot of waiting. These kids will never know

According to the Q+A on the BestBuy website, it does not. And the question was answered by an ASUS staff member.

I guess it's possible but it's really hard to believe that this Chromebook doesn't have bluetooth. I don't think I've ever seen a Chromebook without bluetooth.
