Off topic but any suggestions for cool things to do with an HP Steam 7? I bought one when they were on a really cheap sale because I'm too much of a gadget fiend to pass up a half decent tablet for £50 :) but I've not used it for anything at all...
- alxmdev 10y agoLooks like Ubuntu 16.04 runs fine on it [1], you could turn it into a small personal server, put GitLab on it, whatever :-) I have a Raspberry Pi 3 with Ubuntu MATE sitting around and am likewise looking to put it to good use.

- tomduncalf 10y agoNice! I will give this a go for sure. Thanks :)
- rodgerd 10y agoI don't know that it counts as "cool", but with msys2 (which gives you cygwin + pacman) it's easier to get a POSIX userland running on one of these than an Android tablet. With a bluetooth keyboard it's quite a reasonable little *ix machine.
