We all probably have that one dying laptop that barely has enough juice to keep up with macOS Monterey or Windows 11. But instead of being dead weight, Google is giving us the option to convert them into Chromebooks with its new Chrome OS Flex.
Google just released the Chrome OS Flex in early access, which lets you install the operating system that you see on Chromebooks onto compatible PCs or Macs. Google is definitely targeting enterprise applications for this, so large companies and school systems can update their entire stock of old laptops into idiot-proof Chromebooks. This way, businesses and schools don’t have to buy new hardware to support the latest operating system, they can just convert their existing laptops with Chrome OS Flex instead.
