I thought I'd made a post about this but I guess I probably forgot to send it. Anyway off of what @cathoderaydude has been doing with weird late-2000s-ish multifunction laptops I had the idea of a windows tablet that has a second boot up mode thats a special partition of windows that just loads up a special build of bluestacks at startup that makes it seem like its actually an android tablet

Anyway my version of this mad computer science is attempting to get the Brunch framework set up on this laptop I have (recently aquired -- used -- Lenovo Yoga L13, gen. 1). I'm still having some issues and hoping that soon I can get them dealt with. My initial plan to use a separate partition is probably not as good an idea as just creating a brunch folder that I can boot into instead.

I cannot believe how simple Brunch was to install on this thing. I didn't even need to create a separate partition or anything (UEFI is, like, magic to me, I swear). Just extracted a few files, created a system image, and now I'm in Chrome OS and it's like Android on my phone but better. Didn't have to do anything other than follow the instructions for Windows or Linux on the Brunch repository. When I got this laptop I knew about Chrome OS Flex -- I was not planning to install it because of its massive drawbacks. I was prepared to get by with some tablet features in Bluestacks. But wow this is incredible. My 2-in-1 tablet truly is 2-in-1, and is probably much more powerful than the average Chromebook besides.

Seriously, this is so elegant it's blowing my mind.
