I have a Lenovo flex 5i Chromebook with 8gb of ram, 64 GB of storage, and an Intel 11th Gen core i3 (2 cores 4 threads). The only thing holding me back is ChromeOS consuming 6 GB of ram when IDLE, so I'm thinking about both upgrading the SSD and dual-booting a Linux distro.
It's surprising how devices with operating systems developed by Google seem incredibly simple on the surface, but if you look around for a second the possibilities open up (not that it even matters cause I'm installing Linux but I think it's cool that you can run Linux, windows, android, and steam at the same time in ChromeOS, while all being tightly knit together through one desktop)
Just food for thought ig
