That Chromebook Plus looks like a pretty nice machine, and for daily use 13" is nice. FWIW if you want a little smaller and end up in 11.X", the R11 is fine, but I really like the CTL NL61T. Similar specs and price, but the quad core 3160 instead of dual core 3150, and is designed for abuse.

I bought one for my son late last year and have recently replaced my daily use windows field laptop with another one I liked it so much. It also just gained Android app support.
The only things that I don't love about the chrome OS is printing and scanning. Everything else it does better than windows and as well as Mac. It does so much better managing resources and OS updates are fast and never in your face.
