LOL. Good idea!

But seriously, this sounds like a decent deal, for a really entry-level Intel-based Chromebook. Could probably run Linux on it. Maybe even flash the BIOS and run Windows 10? Well, we could hope.

Really now... couldn't marketing at least come up with some names that are pronounceable?

BTW, never heard of this site, anyone order from them before? Or is this just a random, let's search the web for low-priced Chromebooks?

Also, anyone know if you can watch Netflix via a Chromebook. Oh, wait, they probably still have a web interface, so used to "apps" these days.

Edit: I just sold a Dell N2830 Windows 10 laptop w/120GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD, 4GB RAM, for $200 to someone that wanted to watch Netflix on it.

I could have bought one of these Chromebooks, in theory, and just made a fat profit margin instead, reselling it.
