Any chromebook that you can put Linux onto. I really dislike ChromeOS, outside of the BOTNET it's pretty shit

>Cheap, lightweight laptop
>Usually about 9 hours of battery life.
>Intel CPU

When it comes to storage, you can get an ACER chromebook with a HDD and upgrade it. I have a Toshiba chromebook 2 with arch linux installed. It only has 16GB flash storage, so I got a 128GB flash card and use it for storage.

Thats if you want a nice, light mobile laptop. If you want a tower disguised as a PC get a meme thinkpad.
