   > it’s hard to imagine many Chromebooks currently in service or acquired in the next year or two will still be in service come 2034

   While there won't be many there definitely will be some; I know of an ~8 year old Chromebook currently in active use.

      You can't just expect things to last years! Building stuff to last only benefits society and customers, it does nothing for shareholders!

            Mending is anti-american and anti-freedom!

         Imagine if the pyramids were built by modern contractors... They wouldn't last a decade.

            They'd probably have a subscription model.
