Would this be suitable for a 14 yr old girl? The price is definitely up my alley.

As far as I can tell from my own adolescent sister, the programs they want is an Internet browser, Skype, and possibly a basic photo editing program/uploading program like Picasa.
The most that the Chromebooks can offer is the Internet bit. Taking photos with the Web camera and uploading to instagram via Web? Sure.
Video chatting? She'll either have to make due with only IMing or moving her friends to Google + somehow.
And what kind of cool kid would do that?
