    Be aware that

    1. The storage is insane. Chromebooks you can afford have unupgradeable 128GB max
    2. The processors are often pretty bad, no GPU and all
    3. The keyboards are horrible. There are so many missing keys, will be horrible on Linux.
    4. The BIOS is an intense hack. Having Tianocore on modern Hardware is for sure awesome, but if it fails there is pretty much noone to help you.
    5. This hardware is often bullshit. Glued together, no replacement parts, ports soldered to the mainboard. I saw a video of a repairguy ranting and sent my Acer Chromebook back.

    If you get an affordable one, do it! But dont waste money on that.
