A Microsoft surface is a "hybrid laptop/tablet device;" a Chromebook is most emphatically not. A Chromebook is a cloud-based computer, with a very secure, but restricted OS. I have been using Chromebooks since the Cr-48 pilot project, and I have had a Nexus 7 since last summer. There is very little overlap in functionality between a Chromebook and a tablet, although there is a great deal of synergy between a Chromebook and a Nexus 7 if one is involved with multiple Google services.
