I've never seen a Chromebook, not from my friends not in a shop when I'm trying to buy something. I guess they're not in the market here - lots of things aren't since it's a physically very large, medium sized country a long way from the major markets.
Who has them? are they somehow useful?
- fooker 7y agoI bought one for my parents two years ago, zero 'tech support' calls since.
- thibran 7y agoLow cost, 10 h battery live, Linux support.
- thekyle 7y agoEvery major retailer in the U.S. that I've visited has them. Walmart, Best Buy, Target, Amazon, etc.
- giancarlostoro 7y agoThey are extremely secure Linux laptops based off of Gentoo with everything hardened is what I read here on HN ages back. As others have said major retailers such as BestBuy sell them. My wife bought one for her mother from a Office Depot if memory serves me. Aside from Chrome plugins, it's a secure device. I just rather not have another device that tracks me across the ends of the internet(in this case Google).
