Okay so groupon is running a deal on these two types of chromebooks. What's your opinions on these? My use would be Netflix, web surfing, and some school work. Is google docs a decent alternative to MSWord?

Samsung Chromebook - $189.99
11.6" LED display
1.7GHz Exynos 5 dual-core processor
1MB cache
2GB on-board memory
16GB solid-state hard drive
Google Chrome operating system

Or

Acer Chromebook - $129.99
11.6” HD LED LCD display
Runs Chrome operating system
Intel 1.1GHz dual-core processor
2GB RAM
16GB solid state drive
HDMI port
Three USB 2.0 ports
Built-in touchpad
Stereo speakers
Battery life: approximately 3.5 hours per charge
Weight: 3.04 lb.
Dimensions: 11.2” (W) x 8” (D) x 1.1” (H)
Runs Google Chrome OS

Is the samsung worth the extra $60?

So the cheaper one has an HDMI out and the more expensive one doesn't?

Seriously, if you want to compare at least put the full specs.
