Situation is, I don't have hardware with me, wanna decide which one,
before buying. So that, I require suggestion on diff. hardware. I've
seen another one [link given below]. Question is, how probable a laptop
that support windows 10 could run LINUX in it? or How will I get access
to BIOS? 'cause most of these use intel processors and graphics, so most
probably, they can be tweaked, I guess. There are other hacks already
available for chromebooks, and it have a developer mode, through which
we could hack in.
