If buying second hand, avoid anything with Windows RT. These are older (~2013) 32-bit ARMv7 tablets that run a locked down version of Windows 8 with limited software support. However if you happen to have one lying around then some work has been done to try get Linux running on them, to varying degrees of success. https://openrt.gitbook.io/open-surfacert
ARM
Mostly Android devices that are essentially oversized smartphones, though at the higher end performance can rival that of x86.
