We live in a bubble. Among my friends Mac has 90% computer marketshare and the iPhone has probably 75%. But we know empirically that outside of the high-tech fat-wallet echo chamber these numbers are completely different.
I imagine that is where the Chromebooks are going as well: outside of the bubble. We know people are buying them since they are always in the top-selling laptops category on Amazon.
