You cannot "install" Microsoft Office. But you can use the free or paid web version of MS Office.
Something like this would be miles better for gaming.

You would have to pay for the audio and Thunderbolt drivers.

ChromeOs allows running a linux container call crostini. You might find it a bit limited if you are looking for the full linux experience.
1) looks brand new
2) charger is definitely not oem, has Chinese writing in it and doesn't seem to be a 65w brick.
3) screen looks incredible
4) turned up brightness to full and it definitely looked brighter than any Chromebook I've ever used (350+ nits?)
5) wifi won't turn on
I tried turning it off and on to no avail. Then I hooked up to my lan cable to get online, updated from 109 to 119 and still didn't have wifi. Powerwashed it and still no wifi. I guess my reasonable expectation that Acer ship me an actually checked over certified pre-owned device wasn't met. Unfortunately I'll have to wait until Monday before calling Acer support, but hopefully it won't be too big a hassle to get this exchanged.
Do you think the previous owner took out the wifi card?
