There's a Chromebook on sale but I don't want to use the Chrome OS.

Is it possible to format the Chromebook into a partition that uses Windows 10 or a Linux OS using a partition tool?

Theoretically yes, but the local storage is ridiculously small- typically 16GB to 32GB. You could cram a linux distro on there and use an external HDD for your movies/music/whatever. Not sure how much space winbloat requires...

Then let's forget that I just added Windows in the conversation. Big Grin
