You can complain all you want about the end of support but Google is insanely clear about [https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/6220366?hl=en when devices will stop being supported]. The repeated references to a specific model (one which is fairly old by now) also leads me to believe the original author has no clue what they are talking about.

:Looking at the google-help article you just linked it appears the `Lenovo 300e Chromebook 2nd Gen`'s support expires Jun 2029... is this article even accurate? | |||
:I believe it was always googles intent to release supercheap and heavily discounted chrome-os devices to kids to make them fully dependent on their ecosystem for computing work. They're effectively a loss-leader for google, and will probably rake them in billions as people will be locked into google drive, google docs, google chrome, and google enterprise services. | |||
:As a result, these laptops are effectively e-waste before they're even released to the public, because their spec is so low to keep the program(s) affordable (and the margins as high as possible for google). [[User:GarThor|GarThor]] ([[User talk:GarThor|talk]]) 20:55, 21 March 2026 (UTC) | |||
