An e-reader, so it's unlikely to be of much use.
Can it run Linux? Probably already does.
Does that mean it can run a full desktop? Nope.
It has a 533MHz CPU and 256MB of RAM, so it can run a stripped down kernel and do the basics, but that's about it. Even if you got XFce running, your not going to be running a browser or any kind of games. That's even before you think about how you'd run the display driver.
I mean, people have been gaming with much less for years. Things like Doom, Commander Keen, ScummVM should run. Can't remember what the minimum requirements of Quake 3 were but that's a good candidate for an upper limit.
Sure, but that's not the question here, nor is it really feasible to expect OP to know the technical challenges of doing so if they are asking this question in the first place.
"Look at me I'm a professional"
WRONG.
Browser? WORKS!
games? OVER 20!
THANKS FOR YOUR DISCOURAGEMENT BUT I FOUND GAMES ONLINE
Also, yes. Obviously it runs linux
