For those of you that are interested in HSN 's  HP Chrome book special you might want to check out Targets circular in today's paper they have a 14 inch hp chrome book for 209-259 on sale. I am sure their are differences in the models but to compensate for the big price difference I don't know.

frustrated with Windows, I switched to Chromebooks and will never go back. first one (loved) was a Toshiba; second one (hated) Lenova. I now have the HP Chromebook and it is the bomb! perfect in so many ways. 

 

auto updates keep their propriatary virus protection (free) up to date, extremely fast, doesn't get hot on lap. the backlit keys are very wonderfully visable (a must have). 

 

in short, highly recommend whevever you purchase. I got mine as the HSN daily special about 6 months ago.

I can't find the expiration date for the auto update for the TS HP. Does anyone know what the exp date is for this Chromebook? In case you didn't know, all Chromebooks in all makes have an expiration date meaning their software will stop updating and then your device becomes a security issue. So you need to buy another one.

 

ETA - I checked google for their update expiration dates for "HP-A" models and it looks like June 2026.

I was gifted a Samsung Chromebook and don't seem to find it all that clear to understand.  I've watched many videos which were helpful, but none addressed where my trash or junk mail goes.  I'm so used to apple products that are so easy to use.

Where do you see that? @qbetzforreal 

There is no 32GB offered in the TS, only 128GB.
