This is the laptop in question. It has an x86 processor so basically any distro should work on it. However, it is still a Chromebook which likely means Google fuckery in the BIOS. But it’s great value for the money (can get it $300 off at Costco) and if I can plop Linux on to it then I’d love it.

Hm, website indicates that it should work but that there may be no audio. Might be a no-go then :(

Yes you’ll be fine.
Don’t buy chromebook, but if you’re convinced it’s the right choice you’ll be fine.
