Bought from PBTech on 31 Dec'23 for my son intermediate however the class teacher informed us a day before school started that everyone in the class needs a Windows laptop.... sigh....

Hardly used - limited on setting up an account and installed latest ChromeOS.

Incl. USB-C universal charger

Pickup: Browns Bay, Auckland, or shipping at buyer cost.

$345 - as per purchase price.

I will provide a cut down receipt for the balance of 12-months warranty from PBTech.

Hi why do they need a windows machine as per the previous post. I spent a short few years in school support, I struggle to understand this request in a primary/intermediate setting.

A Chromebook is clearly a online device focused around the chrome web browsing experience.

I assume the school calling the shots is a o365 school, all meaningful o365 apps are supported as web apps therefore work in a Chrome web browsing environment, so dont see the issue, ask the school to articulate themselves better, use there words that are meaning full, not just pontificate unfounded dribble

I can't recall exactly what software they will be using during the year however they will have project base learning and introduce 3d design, animation, having fun with 3d printer etc.

I can't find any reference on school website but fairly similar to MakerSpace offer in the public library
