Does anybody have a Gaugemaster DCC55 PRODIGY ADVANCE2 WIRED COMPUTER INTERFACE that they are willing to sell? I have had one on backorder for almost 2 years now and still no sign of it arriving. Thanks

As an admin for 1200 chromebooks and have been for 5 or so years I will try to answer a few of the questions posted here: The End of support date means that they don't guarantee that updates will work on your device after that time. In some cases support has been extended and in others updates have still applied fine. However we have also had devices where they will not update. This means that as Google stops services working on certain versions of Chrome browser then features will stop working. As stated by 30801 Whenever you buy a Chromebook look the auto update policy here and try to get one with the longest possible support life. Google are working on separating the Chrome browser and Chrome OS into two separate objects so that you can still update the browser even when the OS no longer has support. Schools can lock certain functions such as not allowing devices to connect to the Chromebook. (Good example is kids will attach to their phones as a hotspot to evade the schools Internet filters) They can stop files and folders being shared to accounts outside of the school domain. (Can't share files with personal accounts) Part of this is to do with safeguarding and also depending on various Data protection policies etc. You can enable an offline mode, so when you don't have internet you can work on files and then when it reconnects it will sync the work that you do. Personally I think they work as a device much better with a touch screen version, most new Chromebooks now you can install android apps from the google play store and you can even install a Linux virtual machine on them and use Linux programs if you so wish.
