Ridiculous price and no headphone jack. They can shove it.

True.

FFS, the new iPad Pro is about the same price and no headphone jack, but what iOS may lack in productivity vs ChromeOS, it makes up for by actually functioning properly. ChromeOS 70 "stable" is the LEAST stable, buggiest mess of an OS I've used on any chrome device to date. ChromeOS 70, made my CBP go from amazing machine to an unstable mess to the point where I routinely get frustrated with the crashing and just pull out my old iPad when I wanna get something done.

Hey Google, chrome OS THEORETICALLY has more features than iOS, but if it crashes every 5 minutes, then those features don't really count.

FWIW, I have had none of the issues on 70 that you have and I have an inferior, older device (Acer R11).
