Thank you for your detailed response, OBB.

I am actually asking for a friend (no, really!) so I will have to check what his needs are. He has been told that his (Comcast) e-mail address will be unusable unless he upgrades to Windows 11, which his current computer won't support. I don't think he's a heavyweight user of the internet - no streaming TV or game-playing - so sounds as if a Chromebook - or maybe even just an Android tablet - would suffice.
