It's time once again for another out of body^W box experience as I set up a customer's new PC for them. Today's is, surprisingly, a Chromebook, and they're migrating to it from an old Windows laptop.

The death of computer manuals strikes again. This leaflet, an actual literal leaflet, is the only other thing inside the box. What's the most important thing it DOESN'T tell you how to do?

And now, the showstopper y'all saw coming: My customer has to make a Google account in order to do anything more than just turn it on.
