The largest-screen Chromebook with clicky touchpad

My landlady's 17" Macbook Pro is finally dying a slow death and she wants help getting a new computer. She is 96, only uses Gmail and maybe reads or watches online news, and occasionally prints things from email. I think a Chromebook is a good bet, but which one? A few other requirements below.

She has very bad vision, so a large screen is necessary. She's using my 15" laptop right now and it's "too small". She does not want a desktop because she movies it around the house. She also has poor dexterity so a touchpad that has an actual "click" to it is necessary. Touch screen not necessary. Hoping for under $500 and would prefer much less. Disk space is a non-issue. I know iPads are what are usually recommended, but I don't feel confident that re-learning all the things would be useful. Lighter is also better because she trucks it around a lot. She is cheap to a fault, so even a low end new Macbook Air is too much $$ for her and, again, they're too small.

I'm fine with having my assumptions questions about any of this, but could use some advice. The MBP still works fine, but the touchpad is broken and we got her an external touchpad and it was fine for a while and now it is failing. Getting it fixed in rural VT seems like a non-option.

tl;dr suggest the largest screen Chromebook that has a clicky touchpad. Thank you for assistance!
