Some CoSo brainstorming and input requests needed. 🙏
My mil is wanting a laptop. Tbh it scares the shit out of me because she is not savvy in the ways of the internet and she will be on our home network. *sigh*
I totally understand why she wants one. I seen some inexpensive chromebooks out there and of course there are thousands of others.
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated for an 83 yr old who wants to surf the net. I will be the it chick so please help me keep my sanity 😁

If it's really just going to be a net browser, a Chromebook is a decent idea. The Acer Chromebooks are quite good; that's what they have us on at work.
@voltronic yes, mainly browsing and once I introduce her to you tube 🤯.
Any particular ones. She’ll be strictly wireless.
@Faay
I'm not up on any specific models, the only Chromebooks I've ever used are the Acer ones they replace every couple years at work.
Just do a search for "best Chromebooks 2024" and get something under $500. Acer, Asus, Samsung, and Lenovo seem to be brands that are frequently recommended.
@voltronic @Faay I highly recommend Acer. I've had it for a couple of years, and it's marvy.
@LiberalLibrarian @Faay
It's nice to see how far they've come as a brand in terms of design and build quality.
