What is Chrome OS Flex?
Chrome OS Flex is a free version of Chrome OS primarily meant for older PCs, laptops, and MacBooks used by businesses and schools that are now too slow to run Windows or MacOS properly. Instead of discarding them, you can install Chrome OS Flex for faster boot times, a more reliable experience, background updates, and more. Google aims to reduce e-waste and extend the lifespan of old PCs with this OS.
Chrome OS Flex is currently under development, though you can still take it for a spin if you wish to. It will be available as a free download later this year.
