My interest in ChromeOS isn't necessarily because I want to own and use a Chromebook, but because I saw some potential in developing for the OS if it really started to go bonkers.
Actually ChromeOS is the reason I started learning HTML5 and web development in general. My interest has broadened into cross-platform app development rather than just developing for ChromeOS, but I haven't lost site of my original ideas.
ChromeOS couldn't replace what I feel I need as a user at this time. But that doesn't mean I can't see the point. I'm still interested to see just how far Google wants to go with ChromeOS especially as far as it relates to Android.
But for me, as long as Windows8, Tizen, FirefoxOS, ChromeOS, Android, iOS, Blackberry 10 and web application development can all be powered by HTML, CSS, Javascript etc.. I'm thrilled.
