I think you need to s/people/schools/ on that statement. Education really ramped
in that time frame to get every student a chromebook.
I was on the school board during that period, including where we offered a
hybrid learning model during covid, and I can confirm we did. But having
committed to that policy, you have to keep purchasing for every incoming
freshman class (or wherever you start), especially if you let the kids keep
them when they graduate.
