Follow-up question: if i got a Chromebook and wanted to put a distro on it that does what ChromeOS does, what distro would you reccomend? Just to be clear, I strongly dislike Chrome but depend on Google apps for my schoolwork and my job, which is why I'm looking at a Chromebook at all.

Cheap internet browsing within Google's sphere.

At least that's what mine was for when I had one. It had minimal storage space, hardly any RAM, etc. it was a web browser with a keyboard.

Which was what I needed at the time and I didn't have a lot of money.

I don't have any insights though into your follow-up question
