link v3 full question

Im looking to get a chromebook do they work with this i dont see why not but just thaught i should ask

The Ecmlink application is designed to run on Windows, OSX, and Linux. Chromebooks run on Chrome OS which cannot run windows based applications. If it's an Intel based Chromebook and not ARM then you may be able to set WINE up to run it, but even then I wouldn't bet on it.

Ok dang they are cheap o well

I've toyed around with the idea a full windows 8.1 based tablet in the 8'' range placed in the DIN spot to log. You can typically find them on sale for around $200 just be sure to get one that runs a full version of Windows and not Windows RT.

You can install any OS you want on a chromebook.
Just buy one and if you are new to Linux I'd just install Linux Mint Cinnamon. Very user friendly and if you're just used to windows you won't have an issue using it.

I personally have used both Windows & Linux versions of ECMLink in the past, now I use it on my macbook pro. They all 3 work perfectly and there are really no differences.
