I use it exclusively in Chrome OS, but I'm sort of cheating :). If nothing else, I work at Google (although nowhere near Chrome or Chrome OS), and a lot of our non-coding workflows already favor browser-based tools.
The vast majority of my day is spent in the Chrome SSH client ssh'd into my desktop Linux box where I've usually got a half dozen windows open in a persistent tmux session. I've bound tmux to switch windows with alt+function keys, so this is pretty comparable to working on a good old-fashioned text terminal with much prettier type. My development life is largely writing C++ in vim. These days with a suitable set of plugins, vim can make for a really solid development environment (with semantic completion, file navigation, etc.).
For the rest, well, most of that happened in a browser already anyway. Reading docs, writing docs, code reviews, code browsing, e-mail, calendaring.
Prior to Google I was definitely a Mac guy. At times a miss it, but not as many as I was expecting, roughly two months into this little experiment.
