Use ur phone to start while hoping for the laptop

thanks bro.
I remember last session in UNIBEN, it was my roommate that introduced me to the Sololearn.
Well there's a high chance he can get a laptop here.
One dude that created a thread as a student and expressed worries over his age and how he has been unproductive during this lockdown, I carefully went through all the comments and found a good Samaritan that was concerned and then gifted him a laptop to use and improve on his IT and Tech skills.
I myself have just received a laptop from a nairalander here last week.
It's just basically luck

This are the animals that said God called them. If I was the president or even IG of police this man David I. Will be detained. Religion is causing lawlessness in NIGERIA so much.

seunmsg:
Ibiyeomie is a disgrace to the Christian Faith. That such a terrible character is a pastor creeps me out. The police should immediately arrest him for threatening to kill Daddy Freeze.

did you know the notorious port hacourt serial killer was not only a member but also a devoted worker of his church

Okay Anyway stay cool

Toyade888:
This is serious

He shouldn't have called Mr Freeze a bastard, right or wrong.

Two wrongs doesn't make a right.

Modified:
It seems i am being misunderstood, I'm not saying Mr freeze is right or wrong. I'm saying pastor David should not have called him a bastard (in a derogatory manner) for thinking he is wrong.

There are other ways to correct people.

olaboy33:
The pastor standing on their revered altar called someone a bastard and threatened to tear him to pieces, and the gullible followers were all shouting amen.

That is not a congregation of God,
It's a congregation of the man on the altar.

teadrake:
The word "Bastard" should be censored in the house of God now.

my brethren I weep for the Christianity of this generation.
Not surprised though, the highly notorious Port Harcourt serial killer was not only a member of his church but also a worker.

ok

Datevilme:
So, i was having a conversation with a group recently, and i made mention of a Chromebook laptop. From the look on their faces, i could tell that i had lost some of them, it was almost as if i stopped speaking English for a moment. Perhaps its just the word "Chromebook" that is yet to register in the mind, this is one of the reasons i decided to put up this post, basically, this is what you should know about the Chromebook

What is a Chromebook?

We can think of a Chromebook as an internet dependent laptop. Yes, it was designed to work optimally with an internet connection (which should actually be basic by now). It is really a different breed , compared to what we are already used to (Windows/Mac based laptops).

What OS does it run on?

It runs on Googles web based chrome operating system (OS). Because it is designed to work with an internet connection, most of the Chromebook's documents and applications are stored in the cloud. Google in its usual kind nature provides 100GB of cloud storage for every Chromebook.

Why Chromebook?

I believe almost everyone enjoys the convenience of accessing your documents from any computer or even your mobile device anywhere with an internet connection. Even if anything happens to your system, you can be sure your data is safe.

Chromebooks are very easy to use. When you turn on the Chromebook, there is no setup needed, you just simply need to log into your google account, and that's basically what you need to get started. It also has a built in anti-virus protection that updates along with the Chromebook, so you will always be protected. It also promises long battery life.

What if I'm Offline?

The Chromebook has got you covered, all of googles applications have the option for you to work in an offline mode, then changes are synced and saved when you come online.

What About My Videos And Music?

You can store and play your music on the 100GB cloud storage, or on the Chromebook's internal storage, just make sure you've installed the Google Play Movies & TV and Google Play Music extensions from the Chrome Web Store, you can also switch this applications to offline mode to keep enjoying your music and video experience even while offline.

Basic Specifications

Chromebooks don't really standout for their specs, which is actually the way Google intended. Typically most Chromebook Laptops ship with:

RAM: 2GB - 4GB
Storage Size: At least 16GB Upwards
Processor: Chromebooks mostly offer entry-level processors that can easily handle word processing, emails, and movies but lag in more sophisticated procedures like running 3D games and managing several tasks at once.
Screen Size & Resolution: Chromebooks come in Large (14-15 - inches), Medium (13 - inches) and Small (10-11 - inches) HD screens.
Majority of Chromebooks have touch screens, there are also the convertible ones (Fold-able to be tab like)

Who Makes Chromebooks

Chromebooks are manufactured by the major and popular laptop names we are all familiar with, these include: HP, Acer, Dell, Asus, Google, Haier, Hisense, Lenovo, LG, Samsung and Toshiba.

Limitations

If you depend on typical downloadable windows software, such as Photoshop, or other high end video editing software, then the Chromebook is probably not for you. Although there are web based equivalents, but we can we really consider them viable alternatives?

Can The Chromebook Be Your Primary Computing Device?

Yes and No...it depends on the use, ask yourself these questions before getting one.

How comfortable are you working with web based applications?
Are you willing to evolve from the traditional to something new?
With the stated specs, can the Chromebook support the kind of applications you work with?

So, would you get yourself a Chromebook?

Thank you very much for this insightful write up of yours.
I'm a final year student, I've been incarcerated at home due to the lockdown on schools cos of the pandemic.
I was bored at home so my sister gave me her laptop and I used it for few months and sharpened my IT, Corel draw and graphic design skills and started earning money with it.
She came back recently and took back her laptop and I was left totally empty.
So I came across a friend and told her my predicament and she shipped a laptop down to me only for me to realize it's a Chromebook.
Now my question is.
Since it's files can be assured of safety then that means I'm good to go with it, can I use it for my final year project?
You really sure I can download some movies and few songs into the Google Play Movies/TV and watch them offline?
I've heard of some alternate apps one can use in place of Corel draw and it can be installed into chromebook.
So should I manage with the Chromebook or sell it?
Your response would be so appreciated

ricardstephen:
He bought 17k mini laptop from us Thanks for ur patronage 08059968416

still available?

nineone:
Chromebook is just like you having a laptop that you can only install Google Chrome browser on and every other thing it can take would have to be installed on the chrome browser as extensions. To make it clearer, It's basically having a "browser-only laptop" that you're not allowed to install any other things on.

I have a chrome book and there was a time I had issues with my laptop and needed to run some installations. That's when I hated it. Some models accept android and Linus. I tried to install android but couldn't so I settled for Linus. Unfortunately, the Linux didn't work the way I expected so I had to restore it back to the chrome OS. This is not a suitable or recommendable laptop except you have another laptop. There are some good sides to it though

someone is about sending me a Chromebook for my final year project.
Don't know if I should accept or reject it cos the reviews about it so far is disheartening.
Can you gist me about the Linux app, what's it for?

Eltonluigi:
You
can actually play media on chromebooks

without connecting to the internet?

fatymore:
70 percent of my customers are from here. Funnily enough, I don't know their moniker.


I met someone recently who dashed me money. God bless you Daddy

i created a thread once and a lady here on nairaland gave me 10k in 2016 to go purchase a JAMB form and get back to school, thank God I smashed UTME that year and was admitted, I was about to graduate this year before uncle Coro attacked us.
During the lockdown period, kind hearted nairalanders gave palliatives and I got about 5k.
I created a thread on how I can acquire IT skills, computer programming and Corel draws and someone messaged me on WhatsApp and gave me the tutorials free of charge, right now I'm a tech working and earning from fiverr and upwork.
Last but not the least, a lady here gave me a brand new laptop.
There are so many kind hearted people on this forum.
God bless each and everyone of them

ZINIBANKS:
I saw her thread here and e-mail her she gave me her WhatsApp number and we started talking
She's very cool

She's Nigerian American.
what's the first letter of her moniker and then I'll reply you with the last letter so we confirm.
I'm serious

tropaz:
That's all you can get from it bro... Its just internet oooo
