Oh I totally recommend Chromebooks, they almost entirely eliminate the tech support burden from having a parent/grandparent who doesn't get computers. It was the dude above me who crapped on them.
You're the one who replied "any google hardware" though.
So buy Chromebooks from other oems?
Chromium is about 99.5% open source, there's no real problem with the OS itself. If you're afraid of Google tracking just use the machine with the guest account.
