Chromebooks are not only entertainment and browsing machines, they have also proved to be great education tools. Not only do Chromebooks now make up for 21% of all laptop sales<\/a>, Samsung has also made Chrome OS very successful. It was impressive to learn Samsung held 10% of all K-12 computers<\/a>, but what about Chromebooks in general? <\/p>\n According to the most recent studies, Chrome OS held 20% of the K-12 third quarter share in 2013. This means 1 in every 5 computers in all US schools is a Chromebook! This is a huge boost, considering Chromebooks only accounted for 1% of education computers in 2012. <\/p>\n In comparison, Mac and Windows computers are becoming less popular, with a share of 4% and 28%, relatively. It’s especially surprising to see Windows’ drop, which held 47.5% of the education market in 2012. Ouch! No wonder they are so desperately worried<\/a>. <\/p>\n Meanwhile, Chromebooks continue to be on the rise. We previously discussed the benefits of Chromebooks in the classroom<\/a>, and whether they are the right solution or not. Clearly, they are. <\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
