been a semi-productive day... been to the vet, put fuel in the truck, connected and cut the case for the 5s1p 18650 battery rebuild of a Black and Decker 18v tool pack.
Now try to sort down some of these notes from the last week or eight. I like my technology,.. but pen and paper is still so much faster for fast notes.
Working on the NAS some too.. Got to re-set some shares and such... sigh and it's only mid afternoon Saturday.

Wow... condensed sixteen pages down - wow... i keep the shredder busy some days.

Person arrived within the window. Watched him check the signal at various places, all of which were fine (even though at that moment my cable modem was failing to find an upstream channel). Probably time for a new cable modem.

Asus C201. Absolutely love it. $179 on Amazon, comes in colour chocies, keyboard is really good, touchpad is good, screen is good, weight and size are perfect, battery does 13 hours. It's a quad core, 4GB unit which puts it in the most powerful of Chromebooks categories without going to the crazy units.

Finally got a bit of sleep. Feeling a bit better today.

I was checking those out after your recommendation. I would like to put a Linux distro in it. Do you know if Fedora runs well on this device?
Also, what "apps" do you use for SSH and RDP?

No, I keep it as a Chromebook. I don't RDP so that's not an issue. I use Termius for SSH.

@scottalanmiller And you like ChromeOS enough not to put a flavor of Linux on it?

Of course, I find the entire idea of buying a vertically integrated device and then switching out the OS to be odd. Fine for playing around, but you give up so much.
All of us when we say we have Chromebooks mean we have Chromebooks. Once you put Linux on it, you just have a really low powered Linux laptop.
