We use chromeboxes at work in a public internet kiosk deployment, they're great for that because we can lock 'em the fuck down, the session logs out after inactivity and wipes all the browser data, etc. But yeah I wouldn't want to be on one as an employee trying to do task-work.Nobody should be using ChromeOS except raccoons, because it's trash
No the default will always be sheets since there’s no way to install excel on the computer so no way to select excel as a default. The only way to use 365 is by going to the online versionCan't you change the document default?
Complete replacements except for receiving and sign and label. I assume those will go too once sign and label is 100% goneAre these for some particular niche in stores or totally replacing the Dell boxes?
If the latter then lol. Why put up the outlay for Microsoft volume licenses when you can put it toward executive compensation instead, amirite corp

That would be pretty cool. I honestly think they should just give us the iPads PMLs have and have a couple real computers when necessary. The only real time you would need a desktop computer is when working you’re working on large documents and would benefit from a keyboard but even then iPads have keyboard sThey could literally put myWork or any myDevice app on the Chromebox but they won't.
Fast?.... I’m experiencing the opposite. It takes a couple minutes just to log in. I’m constantly checking my email in the morning on the sign and label and not using the offices. I agree though if tablets were feasible, HR should still have a desktop. My PML doesn’t use his iPad a ton and only works part time so he’s given me permission to use it whenever. I love using it to quickly pull something up on workbench and check my email.Tablets would be beneficial for a lot of applications and processes. But for what I have to do I need a desktop. I’ve used the chromebox at a different store and they were hella fast, but that store wasn’t open yet. I would say any upgrade to what we currently have would be an improvement, but I’ve worked at Target long enough to know there’s always a catch.
Let me clarify. It was fast during Planorama when it was competing with anything else for signal, but it was brand spanking new, so it wasn’t clogged up with temp files bc nobody has ever cleared the cache. Plus I thought just incredibly fast compared to what I’m used to using.Fast?.... I’m experiencing the opposite. It takes a couple minutes just to log in.

Are they like acer or hp?Loving ours. Pretty smooth and I like that it signs you into your own little roaming profile so you don't have to see what junk the TMs before you put on the Desktop, the pictures of their ugly kids, and the not having to re-type my password to log into WB is also nice.
They’re HPAre they like acer or hp?
Ours are Acer.They’re HP
The new displays are acer but the actual boxes are HPOurs are Acer.
Interesting I wonder why they chose to go with different models. When did you get yours? Maybe different roll outs got different contracts/pricesNo, my store's Chromeboxes are Acers also. Not HP.
They look like this but don't have the little stand so they're on their side.
