Google Sweetens the Chromebook Deal Ahead of the Holidays

Free storage promotion runs until the new year

Google is offering a terabyte of free storage with its Chromebook computers for the holiday season, the company announced Friday.


Customers who buy qualifying Chromebooks priced at $199 or more will receive a two-year subscription to Google Drive with a terabyte of free storage space. That amount of space typically costs $9.99 per month, so the deal is worth about $240.


Chromebooks are stripped of many of the programs typically found on PCs, and instead offer apps that are accessed online, like Google Docs. They've slowly gained in marketshare since Google first unveiled the barebones laptops in 2011 - Chromebook sales are expected to triple by 2017.


The Google Drive promotion runs through January 1.
