If I’m understanding this correctly, this is an officially supported Chrome OS that runs on traditional PCs (e.g. devices that come with Windows pre-installed)

This could be an interesting middle-ground for someone who can’t/won’t use Windows anymore but isn’t quite ready to take the plunge into Linux just yet

    It’s however a delight from a tech-support point of view. Since my parents switched to a Chromebox a while ago, I’ve almost never received a call for help compared to their standard desktop.

    I’m currently looking for a Chromebook for my son a this will allow me to reuse an old laptop of mine (instead of letting it gather dust or become e-waste) and I’ll be fairly sure he won’t be able to mess up the OS by accident.
