Hey Everyone,
My name Cody. First, I apologize if this isn't posted in the correct forum and/or if any of my questions are "stupid". I am completely new to linux but am eager to learn with your help. I just bought the new Toshiba Chromebook 2 and was hoping to install either Zorin OS or Linux Mint; however, I am wondering if my new laptop is compatible "out of the box" as they say.
Also, I see many people using Chrubuntu and Crouton methods. I am completely fine with these, but is there a reason why people don't just uninstall Chrome OS and use Linux? Doesn't having two OS's take up more space and slow down your computer?
I think that is all I have for now. Thank you in advance for your time and help responding to a newb
It is much appreciated.
