Has anyone used Visual Studio on a 32 GB or 64 GB laptop?

2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of main internal storage are on the low side for running VS + a host of other day to day applications over the long term. Don't underestimate the slowly growing, but eventually high cost of lower / lost productivity caused by lower storage access performance on the SD card, less RAM cache for storage, dubious reliability of external SDHC / SDXC cards, time spent cleaning up your storage areas more often because you're closer to the limit, etc.

Chromebooks are indeed pretty nice machines, at low cost. The USD200-400 models, i.e. most models, are obviously not suitable as computation powerhouses - that is mostly left to USD1000 non-Mac computers, or significantly more than that for the overpriced Apple stuff - but still usable computers for many use cases / users.
