For me personally, it's not a environment I'd want to develop in 100% but it's nice for vacations or conferences. 2.5lbs vs 6lbs when you are in and out of a couple of airports and train stations is a big deal. I've not been able to duplicate the battery life in a netbook running Linux 100% of the time. My side hustle is tech writing so most of my dev work is on my "big Bertha" Linux box and when I'm out and about and need to do light dev and mostly write or consume, I'm on the Chromebook.
