The Lacros project ÿ an acronym for Linux and Chrome OS, may be a good thing to revive 
my old Chromebook.  My wife was unable to bring up bank websites because the old 
version of Chrome wouldn't allow it to display, and Chrome is the only browser available on 
a Chromebook.  The laptop would not update Chrome because it was tied to an OS that 
had reached its life cycle and wouldn't update.

The word is that if your Chromebook is past it's life cycle, this new browser may allow you 
to update your Chromebook because the browser is independent of the OS.  There is no 
word yet when it will be released, but the word is that it should come soon.

I purchased a new Chromebook not knowing this.  Maybe I could have waited for the new 
release.
