Pros
Pro Faster processor than most Chromebooks
The Acer C720p uses the Intel Celeron 2955U processor, which is one of the best available. The only other processor to date that is better is an i3 that is used in a few of the highest range and education models and the i5 used in the $1,299.99 Pixel.
Pro Able to replace Chrome OS with a full Linux install
With the combination of SeaBios and the CPU used inside of the c720P users can install Linux onto the devices hard drive, replacing Chrome OS.
There may be some limitations to the touch screen and touchpad depending on what Kernel or distro is used. Luckily there are device specific distro respins available that offer a more tailored experience with everything working out of the box.
