No one can answer your question for you with regard to what you should get but you. Tool to task, as I always say.
Lots and lots of people love Chromebooks and they seem to be to be a perfectly fine tool for their intended lightweight purposes: e-mailing and web browsing primarily.
If that's what you're looking for, they often are something that requires less "care and feeding" than a Windows PC does.
But if you need to use your computer for a wide variety of purposes then the Windows ecosystem is going to support that much better.
