I used to run a Samsung Chromebook 2 13" with Crouton, so I could run XFCE Linux next to Chrome OS. It was an excellent setup for the money, aside from a few drawbacks:

- ARM processor (excellent power efficiency and battery, but you can't run certain Linux packages, or programs such as Sublime Text) - Limited storage space (so you must use USB volumes, or server/cloud storage) - Physical security (chroot runs somewhat at a compromise to security)

Other than those, it really was a surprisingly great little Linux machine. Very lightweight, outstanding battery life, and capable of 99% of what I need as a web developer and for casual entertainment.
