[ISLMA-Share] Destiny using Chrome OS

I second John's comments.  The chrome browser is fine for everything,
though I would want a computer for higher-end operations (reports,
uploading .csv files, etc.).  I work exclusively through the Chrome
browser, and though I did use a Chromebook for two years, there were some
tasks it just couldn't handle--meaning I had to find a laptop or desktop to
perform those.  For me, the ideal situation is a laptop with a Chrome
browser (because we're a 1:1 school with Chromebooks for students).  Good
luck and hope that helps!
