That is actually really cool to see/hear.  I've liked their hardware, but a "web-based os" is pretty absurd to me as trying to do the job of an engineer on an tablet or phone.  I could, but geez, why?  Growing up with PC/Laptops, Chromebooks always struck me the drivel, but I've tried everything for years to run android apps under linux as the final killer app, and simply nothing works.  I could tolerate the stupid webapp thing in the background if I can apt install nmap, wireshark, libreoffice, and other tools I use under linux on a chromebook, I think...
