    That’s actually pretty good specs and a very good price for a Chromebook. Even if you hate idea of Chrome OS, these things make excellent Ubuntu Books. Even the ARM powered ones can run Ubuntu with little effort.

      Better a decent laptop in which you can install gnu/linux without any problem.

        Even regular laptops don’t always run Linux problem free, some have driver issues. But it all comes down to the user and what distro they like best. For Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora and a few others you can run it on any Chromebook without any problems.
