There are these Chromebooks that look like laptops, but not really are and much cheaper...
Using a Chromebook exclusively or almost exclusively to play online poker - in terms of technical characteristics and actual performance, is it a good or bad idea? why?

As far as i know at least pokerstars do not officially support chromebooks' chromium os. It may be possible to install the android application but it is not clear how it will work on hardware and software much different than those in your phone for which the App was developed. Even if it works you will be limited to the android version of the poker clients and for me the best advantage of using PC or laptop is to use the full windows software and HUD. To sum it up - i personally will not go with chromebook for poker.
