Yeah but whats good on running a "real" OS and not being able to do real shit on it?

Pi's are not meant to do laptop stuff unless you want a really shitty experience.

The iPad does a pretty great job being what it is, unlike OP's abortion.

you must be fucking trolling because people can't be this stupid.
What a used acer c720 (which is cheaper ~250$(or less)) has that this hasn't:
>x86 processor
>up to 4GB ram
>spare parts that are dirt cheap
>doesn't make you look like a total retard
>usb3.0
>sd card slot
>over 64GB of storage

There are only 2 things that I can think of better in this crap:
Function keys(chromebooks don't have them) and access to raspberry pi's pins.

ffs why would you whip this out in public and if you aren't going to use it in public why would you need 10h of battery.

"PI-top". It really makes me sick, this over-saturation of market with shitty, overpriced pi products for hipsters and children.
Redesign the body into something fucking sightly and drop price about 50% and then you have a great product.

ASUS X205 TA $150.

Acer CB3-111 (and c720p) are the best cheapie freedom machines. Why buy autismo grade overpriced android tablets when i can buy a 100$ laptop you can install gentoo on?

because you can install gentoo on a chromebook too you ass.

chromeOS is based on funtoo iirc. the machines already run linux and you can either make a chroot or wipe and do a normal install.

only advantage might be dualbooting windows and linux, which a chromebook wont do.
>>
>>53941477
i didnt say anything bad about chromebooks, i was prefering them over the pibook or pitop or pitab or whatever its called

chromeOS isnt actually based on gentoo, all it uses from gentoo now is portage (it use to be based on gentoo but has since been turned into its own flavor of linux)

and you can actually dualboot windows on it, issue is the ssd space on chromebooks which gets eaten up by just the windows install, you can upgrade the ssd and do it just fine with seabios or you can vm windows pretty easily in a lightweight linux distro

my bad, i thought you were referring to CBs when you said overpriced autismo android tablets

did not know that you can run windows on those machines. i knew about seabios but had only read about it in relation to a bare metal linux install... i wouldnt mind tossing win7+loonix on a nice CB.

arent most of them shipped with embedded storage though? how would the ssd install go? i dont know that they have an m.2 port or anything.
>>
>>53937589
I probably would too even though the mini 2 is getting a bit dated now, I think for only $100 more you can get a mini 4 that has way better specs.
