Ottawa-based Innie Hap has been selling used Chromebooks that schools don’t want on Facebook Marketplace for as little as $70 each, down almost three-quarters from the original price. Others sell them for just $15.

Until yesterday, those cheap Chromebooks came with a catch: the laptops’ software updates had expired, meaning their lifespan had technically come to an end. 

Google announced Thursday that Chromebooks from the 2021 model year onwards will automatically receive 10 years of updates, and select models from before 2021 can opt in to receive the extended support.
