hm... I thought ChromeOS devs disabled "enable linux apps" feature.

Agree that ChromeOS laptops definitelly have their users. And usually it's schools/education segment and some SOHO companies. Centralized management, good battery life and adoption to use weak hardware and a "low" price as an outcome of previous - are really a huge benefit.

But for most power-users it's really not an attractive device. Last time I saw it - there is no actually ability to use internal ssd, only google-drive storage.

For me if you want to go with ChromeOS - any old laptop with openSUSE, Fedora or Arch would be just fine.
