Can you install Linux on them?

I use mainly Windows these days because of gaming but Linux is so good for learning how computers work in general.

If I could just blow the os away and chuck Linux on one of these devices I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

I know they support Linux apps these days but it's not quite the same and I do not want a device that isn't receiving updates or support.
