If it’s EOL what is the common sense use for this? ChromeOS is a cloud product.
I know a bunch of people who use Android apps on their Chromebooks without needing internet.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(Please note: I don’t work for Woot, I just volunteer to help out here on the forums.)
This chromebook has some cool hidden features.
But unfortunately you cannot install Firefox, which is faster and better than Chrome.
Still waiting for a FirefoxBox
At this price, might be good for a DIYer looking to run Crouton or something.
Anyone know if this comes with a version of Chrome os that’s recent enough to have Google Play Store pre installed?
(Yeah, I know that without a touch screen, Android doesn’t work very well. But there are some apps (well, maybe one or two) that can be used with a mouse pad.)
I think it could be. Because it’s not a Chrome Flex os, but Chrome os.
