As I've mentioned in the past, I often use a Raspberry Pi Model 3 for casual web surfing and email.
Recently Raspberrypi dot org introduced a newer version of Raspbian they call Pixel; it provides the Chromium web browser and a full LibreOffice suite.
Wow, two pigs in one small basket was my original thought.
Boy was I wrong. Chromium (even running uBlock Origin) was by far the fastest and most stable of the available browsers I've used on the Pi.
Midori, and "Web" (both webkit browsers), are slow and crashy by comparison.
Not so with Chromium. Its Blink engine really is very good on this hardware.
And LibreOffice also runs very well.
In fact, this Raspian (Raspberry Debian) release is just all around useable.
If you've got an extra flat screen, keyboard and mouse in your junk closet (or a spare hdmi port on your current monitor), its well worth the 35 bucks for a Pi model B Version 3. Its an astounding value and fun as well.
I bought extra MicroSD cards for playing with the other Operating System choices available from a variety of different sources.
