I have 3 chromebook bricked due to update issues. My 2009 imac is going strong and gut feeling says my 2020 MBA will definitely outlast 2023 chromebooks.

> How are those two even comparable?

They're both locked down with fury and will eventually be rendered useless due to no software updates.

You can attempt to install Linux to those but... Will you succeed?

Haha. Excellent point indeed !
