01. Hold ESC-Refresh -- tap Power to boot to ChromeOS in Recovery Mode --
Press CTRL-D to enter Developer Mode and disable verification --- allow ChromeOS wipe ~5mins
02. Login to ChromeOS via google credz and establish WIFI connectivity with ur router. - shutdown Chromebook -- disconnect Power
03.Take apart bottom half and disconnect Battery - leave off and reconnect Power cable only to Chromebook-- boot into ChromeOS (This will disable "Write Protect" mode)
04.Launch Chrome Browser then press Ctrl-ALT-T to launch a Terminal
05. Type "Shell" to enter shell mode and paste the MrChromebox.tech script in there:
cd; curl -LO mrchromebox.tech/firmware-util.sh; sudo install -Dt /usr/local/bin -m 755 firmware-util.sh; sudo firmware-util.sh
06. select Option to install Full UEFI Firmware -- run through the prompts (because i can't remember them all) -- let it do its thing and reboot -- and you should get a coreboot "bunny" logo BIOS
07. Install Windows/Linux as any other x86 PC - through bootable ThumbDrive. - may need to find a Win11 TPM bypass method (with rufus)
08. shutdown and reinstall battery as before and your done.
Only things I dislike (but cannot complain about at the price) wifi chip is horrible. Reception is fine inside the house but as soon as I go into my backyard it refuses to connect. I can walk 3 houses down on my phone and other devices. Again can't complain for the price...
The trackpad feels a bit sensitive, could be a lot better, but not too big an issue.

Gonna go back to ChromeOS. Maybe consider trying legacy bios and dualboot just to have non-sandboxed Linux available
Hope that answers burning questions on "buying to install windows or Linux" with little effort

Lenovo - Chromebook 3 11.6" HD Laptop - Celeron N4020 - 4GB Memory - 64GB eMMC - Onyx Black
Model: 82BA001FUS
I got stuck at step "03.Take apart bottom half and disconnect Battery - leave off and reconnect Power cable only to Chromebook". It wouldn't power with the provided power supply and the battery disconnected. Ended up returning it.
I'll give it a shot with this Asus.

Alternatively you can use USB Headphones to get sound or even Bluetooth headphones/speakers as well.

Also never had a touchscreen laptop but i read some people say they hate touchscreen because it makes the screen smudge more? Is that truth or false? But is the $90+ price difference just the touch screen vs non touch screen? That seem to be a huge price difference if everything else is the same?
Anyone know how long this deal will last?
