Get a ChromeBox Instead
If you now find yourself not needing all of the overhead of owning a fully featured Windows PC. If all you want to do is surf the web; use email; and have no need for the heavy duty lift of Office and Outlook. In Other Words, then, if you are retired, a ChromeBox is a wonderful choice for easy to use and a relatively inexpensive machine. If that sounds like you, then to take a look at the various PCs today that are built upon, not Google Chrome, but the Google ChromeOS.
Meet the HP ChromeBox.
So to help Vee adapt to her Windows free future, and to any reader of
the Dispatches who might be a
Curious Yellow, I have accumulated the list below of
tutorials and help pages for those new to ChromeOS. Also, what
better way to see if this might be for you. (See above.) I
will be appending this Index as time goes on.
A
good starting off point could be
Chromebook Tutorial for Beginners (November 11,
2022). Here is what the website says you will learn:
Here is what you will learn:
✓ Understand Chromebook’s
keyboard layout
✓ Learn useful keyboard shortcuts and touchpad
tricks
✓ Customize wallpaper Add users and learn about the Guest
mode
✓ Manage files
✓ Keep Chromebook updated.
A well laid out Tips and Tricks Site is: 50 Chromebook Tips and Tricks (July 18, 2022). The site opens with a clickable Table of Contents in a striking white text on black background. This list offers an easy way to read and navigate around the site.
Although the site is ostensibly intended to sell the Book: Chromebook For Dummies, Chromebook For Dummies Cheat Sheet, offers free helpful articles you can select from the menu on the right.
A
even more complete "50 best" sites is
50 Best Chrome OS Tips and Tricks from Beebom. When you first scroll down a little on the page you
will see a small button that is expandable/collapsible Table of
Contents. The Contents is quite extensive. To screen capture
the list in its entirety would consume too much space on the page.
ComputerWorld wants to make its readers "Supercharge your Chrome OS
experience with these time-saving tricks and techniques." Check out these
50 Chromebook tips for maximum productivity.
Who says you can't have your ChromeOS and Testosterone, too?
This
list is specifically gathered to help on person: Vee. But go ahead
and use it. I don't think she'll mind.

So, Mama,
don't take my Google ChromeOS away.
