TL;DR: As of July 1, you can get a refurbished Acer C740 Chromebook 11 1.5GHz 2GB RAM for just $35.99 instead of $100 — that's a discount of 64%.
A brand new laptop sounds nice at first, but that price tag is always there to hinder your enthusiasm. It might be nice to get a new computer with specs that blow your old one out of the water, but why go all-in on a computer with an exorbitant price tag when you could grab a refurbished one instead, especially if you just need a mobile workstation to run a few apps. Something like this refurbished Acer C740 Chromebook is a budget-friendly option, and for a limited time it’s only $35.99 (Reg. $100).
Chromebooks may not pack all the power and storage of a laptop, but they’re still great for what they can do. This model comes with a 16GB SSD and the standard Chrome OS. That’s enough space to download a variety of apps, and for everything else, you have the Google Suite and other cloud storage avenues.
This Chromebook won’t run high-demand games, but if you need something that’s small, portable, and easy to use, then this is your computer. With 2GB RAM, you should be able to comfortably stream, write, and run low-demand apps. If you’re looking for a supplementary device to use on the road or something to use for focus tasks, a simple Chromebook like this fits the bill. It’s compact enough to travel but the build is sturdy enough to stand up to even more wear-and-tear.
The durable design with a reinforced keyboard frame and multiple ports make this a great pack-it-and-go computer. This model is WiFi-ready and has a full HD display with touchscreen capabilities. Refurbished to a "C" rating, it may show scuffs, but it has been tested and is verified as fully functional.
Though it would normally retail for $100, for a limited time you can get this refurbished Acer C740 Chromebook 11 on sale for $35.99.
