I dabbled with putting Linux on the Acer C720 to use Wine or equivalent to use Chessbase that way but putting the machine into developer mode defeats the purpose of a Chromebook (i.e., great security). PGN and the SCID format are great substitutes for the pure database functions but not the Chessbase functionality for Chessbase trainers and Everyman books. I haven't figured out how to access those trainers or the Everyman CBH files outside of Chessbase or Chessbase Light. That said, I like using some of the Chessbase trainers (and have quite a few) and prefer to review some of my Everyman books in CBH over PGN. I know I could use things other than Chessbase like SCID via Linux. At present, I'm still accessing Chessbase on my Windows 10 PC desktop and not on my Chromebooks (Acer C720 4gb RAM with Celeron chip and Asus Flip C100p).
