Russia is beginning the process of transitioning from Windows to Linux. Most likely as a way to avoid sanctions and to no longer be under the control of a US multinational corporation.

what about the old x86 chromebooks that can run Windows and ChromeOS?
Yeah, my chromebook is x86. It’s using an apollolake pentium. The older your chromebook, the better the support. Braswell chromebooks are basically perfect in terms of mainline support, for example. It usually takes years to get chromebooks to a usable state on an unmodified install because Google doesn’t want to contribute anything and there aren’t many people working on them.
If you want a relatively cheap Linux laptop, I’d look at the Pinebook Pro, which is designed to run Linux, so it will be a much better experience.
you need some chunky battery for 22nm. also those things aren’t seemingly vulkan compatible.
