    Ohh yeah, I literally work as a field technician fixing computers for some of the big companies. Literally the only computers that make me & my competitors go insane are Chromebooks. Hardware is ok at best. Software is absolutely HELL though.

        You mean the “disposables”, even though that’s a misnomer. Many of them require a charge one or more times throughout their shitty little lives.

      I’m curious what about the software is hell as a technician? I was under the impression that the ChromeOS part being normally unmodifiable by the user would lead to fewer problems. Is there something about it that makes it worse than a comparable Windows or Mac computer?

      I used to be a field technician doing that and repairing printers. May the roads you drive be safe and your lunch choices to your tastes.
