Lol, I can hear the disdain on that

Installing a freaking old Centricity application, people need to upgrade apps for it to work with Windows 10!

Installing it is easy, getting everything else setup once it's "running" that you generally need to have a complete system is what takes time and planning.

"Generally" need is where we get into very different opinions. For us, we generally need very little else as our customers generally have agent based backups or scripted backups and so no backup discussion or configuration is needed.
For our SMB clients, it's rare that much is needed beyond a basic install and then the VM installs.

Searching for Christmas presents for the kids. Looking at some kind of Android tablet or Chromebook (has to be able to run Android apps) that will last for a couple of years at least. Considering this one.

What are your thoughts on it? Tough enough for 5 & 8 year old kids?

@NerdyDad you need to get the one with the stylus so they have something to poke their eye out with.

I LOVE my Asus Chromebook. If it ran Android apps too, I'd be in heaven.

That's one of the reasons why I'm considering ASUS, along with Dell, HP, and Samsung. You like yours so much. Plus, I had a mobo of theirs back in the early '00s and ran great for its time.
The one I linked claims to be able to run Android apps. Another factor of looking at this one.

My aunt, @JeremyRichardson's mum, just got an Acer Chromebook that she has been liking.
