From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Right, and that’s very easy to set up with the GUI ChromeOS provides.
it may be relatively easy for folk like us, but for the general user I would not consider it so, you also have performance implications as it's running in a VM. even with venus the overhead will always be there, and you wont be able to rid of it until stuff like virtio-native-context is widespread and common. but even then thats just the gpu side, you still have to worry about i/o and memory stuff.
not a good solution
