   So for anyone interested I got tired of trying to look online for the "right"   
   netbook and last night picked up the following HP 2in1 laptop/tablet from   
   "Best Buy" to attempt and and run Xubuntu on it:   
      
   HP Pavilion x360 - 11m-ap0013dx Product Specifications   
   https://support.hp.com/sg-en/document/c06337117   
      
   In comes with Windows 10 S Mode which off the bat restricts you to the   
   Microsoft store sanctioned applications and forces you to use Edge browser.   
   Fortunately it is easy to switch to standard Windows 10 mode to run any   
   windows 10 compatible software.   
      
   I came across the following guide on using Wubi to install Ubuntu distros:   
   https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/17486/install-ubuntu-netbook-remix-with-wubi-in   
   staller/   
      
   The version mentioned only works up to Windows 7 -- however found a newer   
   guide that has a version that works with Windows 10:   
   https://www.lifewire.com/wubi-linux-installation-program-2201175   
      
   Now purists will probably not want to use wubi but I figured it was a good   
   first attempt to try it out and not completely hose the system if I screwed   
   something up I could always fallback to Windows 10.   
      
   For the most part it was pretty easy but every step seemed to have some   
   blocking issue that took a minute of research to figure out so hopefully this   
   will help anyone attempting to do this in the future.   
      
   1) When WUBI asks you which distro you want to download you can let it   
   download it for you but sometimes you will find it errors out at the end of   
   the download with a log saying it could not access the file. You can find the   
   ISO that was downloaded in the c:\ubuntu\install and copy and paste it to the   
   same location the wubi installer exe is located and wubi will auto detect and   
   default to that ISO and work fine. So just rerun it and if it asks to   
   uninstall due to incomplete install just say yes and it will restart the   
   install process not have to download ISO.   
      
   2) Disable Secure Boot - In order to be able to access different boot OS   
   options you will need to make sure this is disabled in the BIOS. For this   
   machine it was simple as hitting ESC pre windows boot and choosing F10 for   
   bios and disabling the Secure Boot / Clearing related keys.    
      
   3) Wifi drivers not loaded - First thing I noticed right off the bat Xubuntu   
   was not able to properly load a wifi driver during installation. But   
   fortunately I found the following guide to enable it:   
   https://askubuntu.com/questions/1071299/how-to-install-wi-fi-driver-for-realtek   
   -rtl8821ce-on-ubuntu-18-04   
      
   Only issue is -- it requires Internet access to pull the components down to   
   compiled the driver :) As there is no built in LAN port I had no easy way to   
   attempt to access the Internet. I saw someone mentioned they used USB   
   tethering to phone but as I have an iPhone I did not want to dare go that   
   route. But I did notice that it looked like Bluetooth was functional and I   
   was able to pair to my iPhone and have it act as a network gateway as a   
   temporary way to get online and it worked great! A little slow but once you   
   get the driver loaded and reboot wifi works fantastic!   
      
   So I have only just started using it but already in love with the setup. I am   
   also using the mini laptop with netrunner terminal to connect to BBS's and it   
   is great to run in Full Screen for a full classic laptop BBS experience (just   
   smaller, lighter and quieter then back in the day and better battery life).   
      
   Hopefully someone else found this informative and helpful.
