On the java note, if you just need 5250 access, I'd see if tn5250j would
run on it and if you can make that the console display. Also if they run a
standard X`11 server, then tn5250 or x5250 are good options.

Can you run java on it? If so it should work. Copy the IBM i Access
Client Solutions .jar file on the thing and crank it up!

Could I use a Chromebook as a console to a new Power 8 server model
