    This is a great little machine if you’re looking for something that is very basic that you can type on and search the web lightly. Not for gaming or heavy Internet streaming. If u can get it on sale that’s the best way to buy it. It also has a lot of ports to add usb devices and storage

      This entry level Lenovo IdeaPad 1i 14 Laptop is not a Chromebook. It ships with Windows 11 S-Mode, 64-bit Operating System installed. Windows 11 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 11 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. Once again, this Lenovo IdeaPad 1i 14 Laptop is an entry-level, light workload configuration. We always recommend you check the requirements and compatibility of any software you will be installing on your new computer, before you invest in any computer. Be sure your new computer can support the software you will need to use and your workload. Lenovo
