Surely there are people who bought Chromebooks for college? Or boomers who bought the $245 Chromebook instead of the $285 Win10S manufactured ewaste laptop?

    Also probably some folks who bought a Chromebook in bulk from a school for pennies on the dollar.

    I snagged a Chromebook back in 2016 and used it for 9 years. It wasn't speedy, but for small time browsing, terminal use (I rooted it and put a real Linux distro in there), and media watching it was just fine.
