Thanks kindly.
Reading through, I get the impression my needs are much much simpler (and dated perhaps) than yours.

Floating panels, color highlights, animations, the need for 1920x1080 minimum res...
These have never been in my work.
Fixed menus are the only way for me. I'm perfectly happy with old Office 2000 and Windows 7 for a computer, and I found the older 11" chromebooks plenty powerful, I just never committed to it.

I'm only looking for gDocs, Word, Writerduet.., those kind of programs.
So in that frame of reference, I was wondering how these hold up.

The one issue you have me thinking about is text scrolling.
As you type new lines and the lines scroll up - are you saying the ghosting is so bad it's hard to read and does the screen keep flickering to re-image the screen? I've not seen that on any youtube vid, so that's concerning....

Thanks again
