Disadvantages of chromebooks.

Disadvantageous features

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Apps are mostly web apps which

can only be used with internet connectivity.Few applications run offline.

Chrome webstore has only 30 apps available offline with minimal

capabilities as they depend on the web.This is just less than 1% of

the total 33000 apps available.

Windows sofware cannot run on Chromebooks.This is because Chrome OS

does not allow installation of windows in developer mode or any

execution of windows files(.exe,.rar,.zip e.t.c.).

Windows software like microsoft office can only be run via Wine which

can be run if you have Ubuntu installed.However, the software may not

necessarily run well but may do so if you use virtual machines.

Virtual machines require large disc space and can only run on newer

processors such as intel. They also have higher capabilities as they

are not limited to the number of windows software they can instal.

Playing games can be tricky as most games are by default built for

windows.However the games are available in the Chrome webstore for

playing online.

Offers USB 2.0 which is much slower than USB 3.0.

Conclusion

'''''''''''''''''

Faster in running web apps but cannot handle windows apps.

The aircraft offers lightning speeds especially, when evading both surface to air and air to air missiles.This is because of the high thrust released by the engines enabling supersonic speeds...
