... so at about $429 + tax out the door? Still sounds good.

I'm planning on searching for the same today before my Galaxy arrives via Fed Ex... downloading big mp4 files speeds and the sound input/output for Zoom and other online live music interfacing platforms is a factor for me as well as life of the OS life support.

the Galaxy chromebook 2 was listed at something just under $800 (I think at about $784) but offered at $549 + plus tax = $600 ..

I need to refer to the specs and compare the Acer with the Galaxy.

Very grateful for your experience.

Edit Update:

I just made the comparison between the two. The specs on the Galaxy I ordered has Processor, 64GB, 4GB RAM. There is another same model with 128 GB and 8GB RAM for an additional $100 or so. I opted for the less expensive.
