    It will be acceptably fast I think, Chrome OS does well with low end CPUs, the 4 GB of memory is more important there. But the screen on that one is pretty small, 1366x768. Does have HDMI out so you may want to find a cheap monitor too for use when at home. That's a good price for the specs.
     
    If you are comfortable with the size and price that's the best deal around, you might also consider the Acer CB 14 at Staples black friday for $199: https://slickdeals.net/f/12217045-staples-black-friday-acer-14-chromebook-intel-celeron-4gb-ram-for-199-99
     
    Gets you a 1080p screen, 32 GB storage, faster CPU.
     
    Also note newegg will have the one you linked $10 cheaper on BF: https://slickdeals.net/f/...-refurbished-for-79-99
