Hey Nancy!

 NB> like installing emacs and other useful things...

Good luck with that.  I've heard rumours about emacs on chromebooks but have 
never seen evidence, up to including finding a link to a valid site where it 
could be obtained.  Just rumours, not even a screenshot.  I have serious 
doubts.

 NB> Not likely that we'd be searching it out otherwise

Understood.  Like I say above, nothing but rumours with no to extremely little 
evidence to back it up.  I am guessing it would take a mess of hacking to get 
anything decent running ... not unlike what I did on this raspi thingy I am 
calling aarch64-raspi3b+-linux-gnu.  No emacs though but I think I could 
probably pull it off if it meant anything.  For sure there is vi.  :-)

Maube if/when I get bored I'll check it out and see if I can get a 64 bit ARM 
version of emacs working on this little guy.

Life is good,
Maurice
