A long gap I'm afraid, but there have been a number of personal reasons for that mainly related to too much exposure to the sun in my 20's..
Anyway, yesterday I watched several YouTube videos about running Android apps on certain Chromebooks, and was most impressed. One of the devices which would be capable of this was the ASUS Chromebook Flip, and as these cost only 2999.- I ordered one from Proshop for delivery in a day or two.
The v53 version of Chrome OS will enable the above feature, and I look forward to trying it out.
I am currently running on my Lenovo n20p Chromebook using tethering to my Nexus 5X, which is working very well.
This was meant to replace my spiral journals when my original MacBook AIR arrived, but even now with an iPad, a bunch of Nexus devices, an 808 Pureview, Lumias 930 & 1020, an LG G3, and a Lenovo N20p Chromebook, I still like using paper & pencil.

Post-Christmas present, Lenovo Chromebook N20p with touch
I have had my eye, and ears via podcasts, on Chromebooks, and at last with a price of only NOK 2.2K I ordered a Lenovo N20p 11.6" touch screen device.
It arrived, surprisingly, on the 2nd of January, and took no time to set up as the Gmail account finds everything you have previously set up on Chrome.
On the 2nd I tried out various apps I mainly use, and today I tried more advanced apps like Chrome Remote Desktop, which allowed me to control the iMac and change iTunes, there being no Remote for iTunes app, which is my essential app on various other Android devices.
Evernote on the web is not very attractive, so I can only hope Evernote stop adding features I have no use for, and get down to making the web UI useable.
Otherwise, I was happy to find Chromecast worked well with YouTube (which also has a crap UI).
That's it for now. I'll be back later when my experience is a few weeks old..
