This Cyber Monday brings with it an incredible Chromebook deal, specifically the Acer Chromebook Spin 714 Laptop for $479 at Best Buy (opens in new tab). What you're getting here is a savings of $250, which brings the Acer's cost down from surprisingly pricey to make it a truly budget work machine.

Cyber Monday deals can really come through to give you some of the best deals of the year. This is typically when retailers mark down their tech wares, especially laptops and PCs, to clear out old inventory and make way for newer models set to debut the following year.

And better yet, this Chromebook is the best Chromebook around for its price point, as we gave it four out of five stars in our review for having a strong battery life, solid quad-core performance, and a well-built chassis.
