Product Manuals
Q: Does this have Windows 10 and is it suitable for a student?
A: Chromebooks are different from Windows laptop products in that they are designed to be used primarily while connected to the Internet, with most applications and documents living in the cloud. Because of this they don’t have much for on board storage but they also are not expensive either. This makes them excellent for students. Chromebooks run off apps like an Android phone or tablet so you cannot download and install applications or .exe files. If you need to use third party software applications that must be installed on the computer, a Chromebook is likely not for you, where a Windows laptop would suit you better.
A: According to Google the end of life for updates on this model is June 2022.
A: Yes, the Microsoft Office app is now available for Chromebooks from the Google Play Store.
Q: Is there any way to have the keyboard light up so I can work in the dark?
A: Yea click on menu in bottom right and hit the night light button.
A: We would need the serial number of the Chromebook to provide a manufacturer date. According to Google updates end June 2022.
A: If it's available as a Chrome app from Google Play or Chrome Web Store, yes.
A: This Chromebook has wifi only, so you would need to use a USB adapter for Ethernet.
Q: Can ChromeBooks run AOL, TurboTax, and MS Office?
A: If these run off apps, yes.
