For those considering replacing their macOS with the latest option, here is a choice that should be considered for its brilliance. While replacing a macOS is a no-brainer option as Apple users would only consider the latest update, Chrome OS Flex gives a viable option.
Google has described the new operating system as a new freely downloadable OS from the search engine behemoth. It has been built for schools and small businesses and is fully compatible with Google’s all-powerful cloud-based management.
The Flex upgrades your existing devices and allows you to fully enjoy the benefits of Chrome OS on your Macs and PCs.
The Chrome OS Flex comes with a breezy interface identical to the Chromebook but without the apps from Android. You also get the expansive Google library of extensions and web apps.
It is a brilliant strategy to bring to life the PCs and Macs that have been retired for being slow and unwieldy due to lack of memory and space. But they are still good to go after the offer from Google.
Chrome OS Flex Can Operate With Only 16 GB Storage And 4GB RAM
Chrome OS is built for speed. The cloud-based operating system won’t get slowed down by cache and log files. Needing only 16 GB of storage, and 4 GB RAM, the Flex can be mounted in minutes on old PCs and Macs.
The Chrome OS has been tried and tested successfully on the earlier versions of Mac, such as the 2009 version of MacBook, and performed well. Any model with an internet connection will work.
Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google, tweeted that Flex brings the speed, simplicity, and security associated with any Chrome OS. The reloaded Macs and PCs will give access both to Google apps and iCloud apps and all your Contacts, Mail, Calendar, Photos, Notes, and Drives.
You can start by registering on the site. From then, it is all about following the instructions. You would need an external bootable drive, such as any USB stick, having a minimum storage capacity of 8 GB to either run straight from the external drive or load permanently on your Mac or PC.
The Flex helps old devices to boot up in minutes. Apps open up fast with little slowdowns. And to top it all, this operating system from Google needs little maintenance.
