To celebrate I watched

I’ve had my C720 for almost 2 years now. It amazes me how well it still runs. ChromeOS is such a lightweight OS that it is hard for it to get bogged down. Granted, you can’t do much outside of your browser, but I didn’t buy it for much else other than browsing and netflix.

And if you’re doing it right and saving everything to the cloud and anything does get messed up you just wipe it and do a fresh install.
