Looking for some help. Trying to make something useful out of this POS. It's extremely lacking in internal memory. Does anyone know of a way to make Chromebook treat a thumbdrive as internal memory? I've seen a few supposed methods to do this on various message forums, but ultimately they don't work.ã SYS64738ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ TX Node 1 - 192.168.1.13ã

The low-end spec is typically 2 GB RAM and 16 GB ãstorage, which should be fine to run ChromeOS.ããã...
