I recently purchased a Samsung Chromebook.  I was very excited about it until I found out, I can't install Mozilla Firefox as my browser.  This is due to the fact, I can't run a .exe file!  I had some trouble viewing some jpeg images on my college's on-line interface program.  I wanted to use firefox instead of Chrome, but that's not going to happen.  I'll have to try some other programs I guess.  I may run into more problems in the future trying to use various programs not related to google.  It's a little disappointing, I'm leaning toward a Mac in the near future.  What's a Lenova Thinkpad?  This has struck an interest lately also.
