What critics (especially those paid by Microsoft) will point out is that
Chromebooks do not run Windows programs. That's true, so if you're tied

there's so much great web-based software now, you can probably find
alternatives to most Windows software. See my article Free Cloud
Services You Should Know About to learn about free web-based apps for
word processing, spreadsheets, presentations and email. Then have a look
at Free Web-Based Photo Editors and Five Free Alternatives to Quicken.
