Hi. i have a acer720 chromebook and i want to play and run some exe files that can not be run on the chrome os. i wanted to know if i can run it next to chrome os and if so how do i do it. if i can run only zorin and have it replace chrome os that is fine two my only question would be if i so chose could i get my chrome os back? i know that this is not yourthing but as far as i can tell there is know other way to find someone that can help i cant find a video or a blog or anything like that that tells me how to do it. i did look at your help on installing and i dont have a disk reader on my chromebook. if you can help that would be much apreashyated i do know a few things about computers so if that is needed to install thats fine,
thanks

Hi, Zorin is based on Ubuntu - hence why I posted that Link!

I know that but does that mean that I can just download zorin on my chromebook and run the setup and it will work?
