Don’t forget all the Chrome OS tablets (yes, I am willing to call these Linux tablets), like the Lenovo Chromebook Duet.

Don't modern ChromeOS systems let you run Linux desktop applications?

They sound pretty much like they are Linux systems that beginning to let down the facade.

Yes, that’s my reason. Also, it’s rather easy to run your favorite Linux distribution on ChromeOS devices compared to Android hardware.

Awesome, I saw that you had to add in a little defensive comment and felt I should back you up.

They run the Linux kernel out of the box and can run standard Linux applications.
