I just flash the firmware for my users. then there's nothing but a quick bootup, and no "scary warning". take a trip to johnlewis.ie to download the tiny firmware updater. you might surprise yourself on how well you do.
If you use linux in an IT environment, you are likely maintaining your own package list and configurations anyway. spending 4 minutes untarring an entire distribution to a chromebook post-firmware-flash is pretty painless. Spending 15 minutes installing GalliumOS is brain-dead simple, should you not have the sysadmin skills.
Chromebooks are a very good idea if you want a cheap computer that can run a full desktop stack. They can even run Windows, should you enjoy dark patterns in your operating system choice.
