Consider the possibility that it was not overlooked, but rather not pursued because it was not considered relevant.

First, this is Mobile Read and tangents are not only allowed but welcome. Second, this is anything but a tangent.

Consider the idea that my disagreeing with you is not the same as me saying your post was not appropriate, and that maybe the attitude is uncalled for.

But the topic is Chromebooks, not Chrome, so the laptop's ability to run Linux is not only worth noting but relevant.

I stated why I think participants in the thread may not find it relevant: It seems to be becsuse the conversation has been about the cloud-based Chromebook system. Not inappropriate, not overlooked, merely not what folks were talking about.
Obviously I think it is a very nice, investment preserving factor in buying a Chrome book.

Good to ken. I hadn't read anything about Chromebooks being easy to take apart or having space to add additional storage. Since a Chromebook might only have 16-32GB internal storage, it doesn't necessarily follow there would space for a proper SSD inside unless someone like you confirmed it.

Yeah, between big fast SSDs and extra memory, some seem to have turned their Chromebooks into Linux ultrabooks.
