If I already put a comment on this before my opinion hasn't changed any. I bought a refurbished one, but the  company said it was new -- whatever -- it was in excellent condition.  I had no complaints on that!It works well in fact it has a better scree resolution than I thought it would and HP always seem to do well ln the audio department.  I might have wished for USB ports -- but so far I have no reason to use them.Apparently, this true of --any-- HP Chromebook but they like to mount the battery underneath the keyboard, and it wiii be a bear to replace!  I hope it has a very long life!I got it at a good price, the in-house Linux was easy to set up, that's one very important reason the 64 GB disk space was important to me, so I have no problem recommending this Chromebook.
