Hi all,

I have an Acer Chromebook R11 which I love but I need a Windows OS for my new job. I 've tried CrossOver etc but it won't work so I need to get a new laptop.

I basically want what I have, it's powerful and fast enough, just with a Windows OS instead of Chrome if that exists. It's gotta be SSD, the storage and screen size don't matter.

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks

It is lacking RAM, but at your budget (i'm presuming this is low) you don't have too much variety. These are decent machines, and the 128GB SSD is a big plus.
