iPad Mini for Chromebook?

[Mastercrib192]

I am a very involved writer and do not mind using google docs or word online for my wriiting. My question is that will I be making the right desicion if I sell my iPad mini and get a chromebook? I may need it for light researching, but other than that, I need a distraction free way to write. The Chromebook would be my second computing device, as my first computer is an all in one Dell that I just bought for $750 new for at best buy with a coupon that took 10%-20% off. I can't remember. Anyways the dell has office 365 on it with windows 8 so because I need to constrain my spending, do you think this will be a good transaction?
