PC laptops are a thing of the past for me, I prefer the UX of the Chromebook, particularly the stripped down keyboard. I do run Ubuntu and the lack of a delete key (delete != Backspace) has not been a problem. The lack of disk space hasn't been a problem either.
Delighted as I am with my Chromebook Pixel, would I swap for the new HP? Nope. Like an Apple user only interested in computers that run OSX I only want a top end Chromebook next time around. The latest and greatest PC is of no consequence. Maybe the automotive analogy is with Tesla, a Tesla owner is not going to be interested in anything out of Detroit unless it is electric.
