That's what 100% absolutely kills me with Chrome OS. When I first used the CR48 it felt like a companion device to my main desktop Chrome environment. Now it's trying too hard to be a primary device, and now with Google deploying Android tablets and Chrome OS-powered tablets it's like nobody knows what platform needs to be on what endpoints anymore. Will the laptop run Chrome OS? Lacros? Android? Who knows!
I really really wish I could have a ChromeOS fork that goes back to the simple "the browser window is the OS, no more, no less".
