Build your own educational device

Goal: This tool enables you to configure your own educational device with a variety of options. First, select the operating system (OS) you want to use: Chrome or Windows. Once you have selected the OS, your other configuration options will appear. Each option costs between 1 and 4 credits, and you have 18 credits to spend. At the top of your screen, you can see how many credits you’ve used and how many you have remaining. Once you have finished building your device, click “Configure” to learn about the device that best matches your needs.
