This is really sad. I had a Chromebook for my entire highschool career and into college, and only got rid of it after I accidentally placed it on a hot stove 💀
What OS did it have? What other specs? You liked using it I guess, what made it a good laptop? Did it have good build quality?
Huh? ChromeOS, a couple gigs of RAM, basically no storage, and some crappy Celeron. I used it basically the same as I use my Pinebook Pro now. I’m actually pro netbook, if we’re going to live in a SaaS hellscape we can at least get cheap laptops as a result.
These days I also have a T480.
Several Chromebook models can run Linux without messing with the firmware : https://github.com/eupnea-linux/depthboot-builder A cool project. I have a refurbished Chromebook with touch screen running Linux.
