If you're willing to consider Chromebooks then also consider a Mac. As the desktop support guy in my house my workload went down about 5x once I convinced my wife to switch. Now everything just works. The hardware has proven to be very robust with the introduction of SSDs; we have 3 MacBook Pros and a MacMini from 2011-2013 that leave nothing to be desired. Happy to not have to do weird dances to get printers to work or backup servers to connect properly and function. I do occasionally run a Windows instance on my Mac using VMWare for the occasional oddball program that won't run on the Mac side, but it's been many months since I needed to use it.
