The “cloud-first, easy-to-manage, and fast operating system for PCs and Macs.

To help device owners figure out whether ChromeOS Flex is a good option for them, Google put together a list of hundreds of compatible (and not-so-compatible) devices. Acer, HP, LG, and Toshiba devices tend to work just fine with ChromeOS Flex installed, while a couple Dell and Apple devices are prone to minor hiccups. In a blog post published yesterday, Google announced that ChromeOS Flex has become publicly available.

With ChromeOS Flex you can turn an old PC or Mac into a Chrome-powered device that's safe, secure and completely up-to-date with all the latest security patches ...

Look for the red stop sign, though: if that's next to your hardware it means Google has encountered a serious issue and doesn't recommend installation. Google has published a list (opens in new tab) of the 400-plus certified devices; if your PC or Mac isn't listed that doesn't necessarily mean it won't run ChromeOS; it's just that Google hasn't tested it. It effectively brings your old PC or Mac back as a device to rival the best Chromebooks.

If families opt out and the laptop is broken, they will be “on the hook” for the bill. ♦ The board heard a summer school report by Coordinator Ryan King, indicating that by July 13, 93 incomplete courses were made up by high school students. The Class of 2024 started with 52 percent on-track, and ended with 69 percent on-track, 17 percent increase. The Class of 2023 started last school year with 60 percent of its students on-track, and ended the year with 69 percent on-track, a nine percent increase. “I think part of this is (about) holding our student body accountable,” Lewis said. Lewis said he’ll run some models for how the two insurance options would look. In many cases of damage, staff are able to easily ascertain whether it was accidental, he said. Lewis gave an example that in just the first week of summer school, 12 screens were broken. Lebanon has a high percentage who fall into those categories, so it would be expected the District would fall below the state average, but Lebanon actually ranked commensurate to the State average. The steel frame metal design with polished concrete flooring includes three classrooms, restroom, a fitness facility and a covered canopy. Same in Math, where 54 to 64 percent were in the top levels. “One of them was just across-the-board achievement for both STAR and SBAC,” Wittman said.

It’s also only 11.8-inches wide, which is just wide enough to be a good working surface but not so large that it gets in the way.

After all, when you look at the code names of the processors in Snapdragon Chromebooks (SC7180 and SC7280), it feels like it is clear that the 7180 is the 7c ...

With that in mind, I then looked a bit deeper into the Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 spec listing, and you can likely guess what I found there: NVMe support as a new, updated feature. This made me a bit curious, and after seeing it, I began searching for this feature in the Snapdragon 7c and 7c Gen 2 product listings from Qualcomm. And to my surprise, neither of those SoCs supports it. After all, when you look at the code names of the processors in Snapdragon Chromebooks (SC7180 and SC7280), it feels like it is clear that the 7180 is the 7c Gen 1 and the 7280 would be the 7c Gen 2.

And if you want a haptic trackpad, there’s really only one choice here: The HP Elite Dragonfly Chromebook. Clearly, each 12th gen Intel Chromebook has a very different price point. Nor the $866.15 discounted cost of a Lenovo ThinkPad C14 Chromebook.
