Designed from the ground up for the way we use computers today, Chromebooks boot up in seconds, giving you instant-on access so you don’t have to waste time or miss out. They bring you the best of the web to do the everyday things — like sending email, surfing the web, managing your calendar and creating and editing documents — more easily. Thanks to automatic updates, Chromebooks actually get better and faster over time.
Easy to use and easy to share, Chromebooks make a great second or third computer for kids doing homework on the couch, parents catching up on email at the kitchen counter and grandparents staying connected on video chat. They require no setup or maintenance and there’s no need to worry about security updates, anti-virus protections, malware or installing software. This means that you get a faster, simpler and more secure experience, without the hassles involved with other computers — they just work.
They’re easy to share with others because each person can have a separate account for their stuff. Both devices come with 100 GB of free storage on Google Drive*, so you can get to all of your stuff anytime, anywhere. And finally, if you use products like Gmail, Drive, Search, Maps, YouTube, Play or Google+ Hangouts, you will find that everything works seamlessly.

Now, the 12-year wait begins for the next Lions Test in Australia...
