Are there still any computers being sold which are too slow for doing Basic Elementary to High School work?

I havent recently seen any slow computers being too slow for Microsoft Office and other software which is used by elementary and High school students.

I think most newer $200 Windows 10 PC now have a fast enough CPU for MS Office, etc,

chromebooks seem to be able to handle it, and the most they got is 4 GB of ram and 64 gb of storage. I'm sure running pentium processor.

I guest there maybe a few very cheap $30 Google Android tablets and mini computers released in the past few years which are too slow for running school related apps like Word Processors and English Dictionaries.

But, it maybe difficult to find a newer Android tablet or mini pc which is too slow for running Android school related apps since slow Android devices wont have a lot of buyers. A lot of Android users are mobile gamers, play game console emulators, and watch a lot of HD video files, so a faster tablet or mini pc is important to them when buying an Android tablet or PC.

I think the Raspberry Pi 4 mini PC is now a lot faster than older versions of the $35 mini PC, so cheaper $35 PC are fast enough for Office and school work.

Those kids are either using chromebooks, or second hand laptops from their parents.
