Title: Tails on a Chromebook?
Post by: IamMulva on June 14, 2013, 12:34 pm
Can you use Tails on a chromebook? Im looking to get a laptop only for use on hidden services and thought one of the chromebooks might be a good choice due to the cost factor. any thoughts?

It seems like Tails won't be able to run on the Chromebook.  :(
There's a special version of Ubuntu for the Chromebook though but that's probably not what you're looking for.
You'll probably be better off getting a cheap netbook instead if you only want to use it for Tails.
