Score a new work laptop and save with our favorite Amazon Chromebook deals

Chromebooks were regarded as something of a novelty when they first came onto the scene several years ago. The Linux-based Chrome OS was a unique departure from Windows, Mac, and even other Linux operating systems, but these lightweight and compact notebooks have become surprisingly popular recently — and as Google continues to improve its operating system, it doesn’t look like the Chromebook tide will be receding any time soon.
