Chromebook is paying for coffee at a coffee shop.

No because then you might get decent coffee sometimes. Chromebook is getting coffee from a 7/11.

Chromebook is the coffee from the coffee machine in my university, which no one ever uses, and no one is certain has ever been cleaned

That shit is nasty.

US or Japan 7/11? I'm pretty sure they're different grades of coffee.

Nah, Starbucks is MacOS.

It's more expensive than it needs to be, but it looks really pretty, and fundamentally it's still coffee, just like MacOS is Unix-based under the hood.

A chromebook is more like a can of coke. It's caffeinated, has mass-market appeal, but nobody's going to be spending hours talking about just how great their can of coke is vs. someone else's can of coke. A high-end chromebook is maybe a glass bottle of Mexican Coke.
