    Worked so good! I have brought back 4 ancient iMacs to life with very little effort by installing Chrome OS Flex. Yes I could have done it without the thumb drive but I’ve been saying I would do it for years and never have.

    ​I have a massive stack of aging laptops that were collecting dust, struggling to boot, and essentially rendered useless as their legacy operating systems reached the end of the road. Instead of giving up and tossing perfectly good hardware into the e-waste bin, I decided to grab the Back Market ChromeOS Flex USB Stick Bootable kit. For just three bucks, this tiny piece of hardware promised to inject a massive dose of modern vitality into my oldest machine, and the transformation has been absolutely phenomenal. It arrived completely pre-loaded and ready to deploy, beautifully eliminating the tedious, technical headache of hunting down installation files, dealing with recovery utilities, and formatting boot drives myself. ​The entire deployment process is brilliantly straightforward, making it an absolute joy to use even if you aren't spending your weekends building custom PCs. I simply ensured my old laptop was entirely powered down, popped the USB key into an available port, and tapped my machine's specific boot key immediately after hitting the power button. Once inside the BIOS menu, it was just a matter of pointing the system to the USB boot option, and the setup wizard took over from there. The software completely wipes away the sluggish, bogged-down environment that was choking the hardware, seamlessly replacing it with a highly optimized, cloud-first infrastructure that gets you up and running in a matter of minutes. ​Once you cross the finish line into the desktop, the performance leap is nothing short of staggering. A laptop that previously took five minutes just to reach a usable state now boots up completely in under ten seconds, navigating with the snappy, fluid responsiveness of a premium, modern device. Because the operating system is specifically designed to offload the heavy computational lifting to the cloud, the aging internal processor and RAM are no longer constantly bottlenecked by heavy background tasks. I am effortlessly bouncing between dozens of heavy browser tabs, streaming high-definition media, and managing intensive web-based workflows without a single stutter. As an added bonus, because the system runs so incredibly lean, my laptop's fans are whisper-quiet and the battery life has seen a dramatic improvement. ​The genius of the Back Market ChromeOS Flex USB Stick Bootable lies not just in the speed, but in the brilliant approach to sustainability and security. It completely redefines how we handle "obsolete" technology by wrapping our older hardware in a secure, constantly updated ecosystem that protects against modern vulnerabilities. While it is heavily focused on web applications and doesn't support heavy native software downloads, it flawlessly handles the exact things we spend the vast majority of our time doing online. For less than the price of a cup of coffee, this clever little drive saved me hundreds of dollars on a replacement computer and turned my forgotten paperweight into a lightning-fast daily driver.

    I have a Lenovo 330 laptop with Windows 10 and I had not even turned it on for four or five years because it was so slow. Using thr easy to follow instructions I changed the operating system to Chrome OS Flex and the computer now boots up quickly and I can complete all of my tasks EG check my email and read my news feed and watch videos on Netflix Etc. Great product and I highly recommend it to anyone with an older Windows computer that is barely operating

    It installed without any problem on my old garage laptop. Very well done installation package. It didn't work on my laptop because the wifi adaptor isn't supported. But it was well worth the try. I ended up reinstalling Windows 10 with nothing else on it but a browser.

    What a great tool and well packaged. I had to wait a few days for them to be available as they are selling out fast. I've already revived an old Macbook and a Lenovo Ideapad. Both are working great and fast compared to previously running Linux Mint on them. It could not be easier to install and at a giveaway price.

    I love being able to install Chrome OS on my i5 intel, "no longer windows valid" desktop. Hardware works perfectly as expected, none of that troubleshooting to make a "good copy" of Chrome OS with these. Glad I bought 3.

    The case arrived on time and it's brand new, in the box, so the condition wasn't an issue. I'm not really a fan of the case, to be honest. I want a case that is MagSafe compatible, has a raised edge or lip around the screens edges to protect it. This case only offers minimal protection, but it's better than nothing in the meantime.
