Limited in what respect? There's plenty of Linux distros which run on ARM/ARM64.

  I guess I was only referring to being able to install anything precompiled for Intel linux, which would include just about any proprietary software. I had a few problems running things in my past attempts with this (running Ubuntu on an Android tablet). However I was surprised to see from Googling around that people have indeed now got most common dev tools working on the Samsung ARM chromebook so I might be completely wrong about it

    As voltagex_ pointed out you will have no problem with open-source packages, but I imagine you could try QEMU for running proprietary x86 bits in a pinch.

  Limited in two respects: 1. The lack of a pointing device 2. Missing keys on the keyboard: escape, tilde, brackets. Are there Linux distros that work well under those constraints? Honest question.
