Linux pre installed is the only way for most people to use it I'm afraid.

Cut out the middleman and get some rollerblade wheels for the chair with sleeve bearings. They go over short carpet and hardwood floor and don't cause any damage.

We had an older Hitachi tv with 4 HDMI plus component plus RCA input and 4 different options for audio input.

New Samsung TV. 2 HDMI, that's it. One is ARC which is the only audio interface besides TOSLINK so really theres effectively 1 HDMI to use.

But of course all the lovely ~~spyware~~ smart features more than make up for it.

I love the poster. It reminds me of the meme of "the girl you like, her boyfriend, her dad, etc,"

Vs a 3060 a 6700xt would probably be a lot better for only a little more money. Otherwise it's probably Worth looking at used options as the price/performance gets worse as you get lower priced cards than that.

When I was in 9th grade it was netbooks with Windows 7 and they were also terrible and fated for the recycling bin before I was a junior.

In most enterprise IT your lifespan for hardware is between 5 and 7 years maybe 10 for printers and network switches.

I'm sure most schools try to stretch hardware as far as it will go but IT would have known when they bought the Chromebooks that they'd not be long for this world as cheap as they were and that's the price they would pay for paying such a low price.

I think what is sticking up the works is on an administrative level, higher ups are expecting IT departments to stretch EOL dates like they used to do with Windows machines but now they absolutely can't and Admin didn't plan to have to buy all new whether or not IT did
