The folks at ABI Research have conducted a study involving Chromebooks running Google's Chrome OS. To date, there have been about 2.1 million Chromebooks that shipped all of last year. An incredible 89% of that number was in the United States alone. The research company does forecast an astounding 11 million Chromebooks to be shipped in 2019. That is an increase of about 28%. The average selling price is $338 despite Chromebooks being priced very competitively.
In 2014, ABI Research senior practice director Jeff Orr says anything can happen due to "the EOL of Windows XP, the adoption of Chromebooks, and a stronger focus on web and cloud services." Orr adds that the response from consumers to these changes will dictate the course of the market. With Microsoft still retooling Windows, 2014 could be a huge year for Google to give Chrome OS a massive push.
