I am a college professor who teaches courses online at a GA public university. Georgia public universities use a browser based program called Desire 2 Learn (D2L) for both regular and online classes. D2L runs excellently on both the Samsung 303 and Acer CB3. I use Google Docs to create my syllabus and assignment documents and save it as a PDF. I can view any of these PDF's on my computer. I can also view any microsoft office documents my students submit. I use the chromebook, with HDMI out, to do my class powerpoint lectures instead of relying on the built-in windows machine in the classroom which has the distressing tendency to reboot and update in the middle of class. I recommend my students use Prezi for their presentations. The only time the Chromebook won't work is if you have to run specialized software (spss statistical packages for example) in which case you can use the computer lab.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is perfect for students. Unless your online college requires that you add any type of windows programs (ie. progamming applications, photo or movie editors, etc.), then a windows laptop would be best.
