Crouton to boot into an Ubuntu session

Top Pro

No need to be online always.

There is no need to be connected to the Internet all the time to work. Although chrome machines usually are not so powerful and they can't be used for tasks needing high computing (such as code compilation, data processing) but Crouton at least allows to work (like coding, version controlling local copies with git) completely offline.

Top Con

Breaks the hardware security

Top Pro

Easily switch between ChromeOS and Ubuntu

Crouton allows for the use to alt+tab back and forth from ChromeOS to Ubuntu seamlessly. No rebooting the device, no logging out. See More
