I did have a look at this, but decided there would be little to gain - given the small SSD. Unless you want to run a specific app, say Skype, I would stay will Chrome. You can run the office apps and Gmail offline and if I'm not connected, I have no use for the machine anyway! (Other than Video, which streams from my Seagate Wifi Drive)
