Hi,

I’m looking for a laptop in the $200 - $400 mark (can be second hand) that has reasonable support for linux and also has a touchscreen.

Touchscreen will be mainly for scrolling.

I’m happy to do some stunts to get linux installed but I’m looking for something that supports it reasonable well.

Thanks for any suggestions!

    A lot of the reason that you can get a Chromebook for around 100$ is that they don’t have to pay for a windows licence like other manufacturers.

      Also, Chromebooks have low profit margines so the price is even lower. They mostly survive on schools and small businesses buying Chromebooks.
