Right. This says nothing about "Chromebooks" per se; more "all computer and computer-like" devices. The planned obsolescence for all of them is pretty appalling

Right. This says nothing about "Chromebooks" per se; more "all computer and computer-like" devices. The planned obsolescence for all of them is pretty appalling. I say this as someone who runs a non-profit which includes at times grabbing old computers from institutions and trying to repurpose them for others. The number of available computers FAR FAR FAR outpaces the time, labor, and even possible recipients. It's ridiculous how we throw these things away.
