FAQ

That’s similar to the 13.5-inch Surface Laptop 4, and slightly cheaper than the 13.3-inch MacBook Air - although neither of those models can match the versatile convertible design of the Book2 360. The ASUS Chromebook Flip C433 is a cut-down version of the company's famous Flip C434 Chromebook. It maintains the same 2-in-1 convertible design, premium look with a beautiful silver finish, and 14-inch compact design at a budget-friendly price. Why the price discrepancy? The Flip C433 is made from low-quality aluminum and has a slightly dimmer screen. If you don't care about those things, you're going to get the same performance for a lot less. Born in Worchester, Massachusetts, Myrer grew up in the Berkshires, Cape Cod, and Beacon Hill -- all settings for his novels. A 1941 graduate of Boston Latin School, he interrupted his education at Harvard after Pearl Harbor to enlist in the Marine Corps and spent more than three years in the Pacific. He rose to the rank of corporal, took part in the invasion of Guam, and was wounded.

Anton Myrer, who died of leukemia in 1996, was a best-selling author whose themes were America's loss of innocence and the use and abuse of power. He is particularly remembered for The Last Convertible (1978), a summation of the American experience during and after World War II, and for Once an Eagle (1968), which traces the life of a regular Army officer and his family from before World War I to Vietnam. Orville Prescott, in The New York Times wrote of Once an Eagle: "Myrer is a superb story teller....who cares about the narrative and is a master." The Army War College Foundation, which is republishing the novel this year, describes it as "a perceptive study of the profession of arms an a chilling overview of armed conflict... Myrer forces us to smell and feel the battlefield as well as hear and see it."

Many lightweight laptops have to compromise on connectivity to keep their weight down, but the Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 manages to provide one Thunderbolt 4 port, one USB-C and one USB-A (3.2), along with a microSD card slot, combo audio in/out, and even HDMI for connecting an external display. There’s also Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 for wireless connectivity too. Our only real complaint is that the 720p webcam isn’t great - producing a slightly grainy image that is easily washed out in bright daylight. The Samsung Galaxy Chromebook is the benchmark for 2-in-1 style Chromebooks. It excels in performance, build quality, and image quality. The Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM offer plenty of power for work and multitasking. You can open multiple Chrome tabs without any stutter or a dip in performance.

Acer's Chromebook Spin 713 is a powerful and affordable 2-in-1 Chromebook with excellent performance and build quality. It improves on the already impressive Spin 713 from 2020 with an 11th Gen Intel Core i5 processor and significantly improved integrated graphics.

What I really liked was the monologue and self-reflections of George, especially when he spoke of and partly analyzed the entire generation whose youth coincided with WW II and the two decades after it. Indeed, there are so many characters in this book and their portraits were really fascinating. Their attitudes and inter-relationships also impressed me by being so... non-stable and multifaceted. Indeed, life can be very complicated... This book shows this sad conclusion in a beautiful way. To be honest, Jean-Jean remained my favorite person (maybe because he did not have the time to spoil this as the others did) and I despised a lot of the other characters' actions. Yet I found a lot in common with Russ and Terry.

Our 3DMark tests all produced scores that put the Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 in the ‘less than 30fps’ category, so it’s clearly not intended for high-speed action games. But, if you don’t mind tweaking the graphics settings down a bit, you should still be able to get playable speeds for more casual games that don’t require split-second response times. The Galaxy Book2 360 might not win any awards for original design, bearing a marked resemblance to the MacBook Air, with its 13.3-inch display, silvery gray casing and tapering profile. Unless otherwise stated, data read and write speeds are based on theoretical performance. Actual performance may vary in real-world situations.
