I know chromium os is a foss distro you can just download and no one would ever use this but I think it's cute, the custom disc label clearly had work put into it and it's a cute collectible.  Again it's only 15 bucks with modern inflation you can't even buy a fast food meal for that as a little bobble knickknack I think it's cute.

Is disks are always the best pc items to find. Found a windows 10 installation disc in an old disc drive out of a family friends old hp pc, it even helped me install windows on my pc since it would (for some reason ) only acknowledge the disc drive I threw in there.

It's a bit plain for me, but I understand everyone has their own taste.

Unlike tastes, this is objectively very little work.
I'm no designer, but I've made labels like these in just 5 minutes back when I used to burn my own media.

It is a bit more complicated than that, you can't just download the official ChromiumOS live image like say Debian.
(ChromiumOS ≠ ChromeOS)
You'd have to build it yourself. That is probably another reason why listings like this exist.
Or you could download an ISO from some randoms... which is kinda like buying this DVD, you have to trust that 3rd party hasn't done something fishy.


In any case, 
If you are going to put it up as a decoration (not actually use it), sure I can see how it can be appealing to some.

Since 2025, all of my posts strictly adhere to the 'Community Standards', ignoring any nuance.
As part of this shift, I'll rarely offer assistance to anyone, nor will I post any jokes or light-hearted content.
