You don't need to replace the OS with linux, it is already linux based. If you enable developer mode you can get to the terminal, and if your linux-foo is strong that should be all you need (and you'll still be able to use ChromeOS).
This is what made my (free) Cr-48 awesome. Does it make the (expensive) Chromebook Pixel awesome? I don't know.

- oliwarner 12y agoTechnically, yes, but not in the way the parent meant. Getting access to a few GNU tools is not the same thing as a real fully-featured desktop and software repositories. That's before mentioning proper support for closed-source x86 applications. Most developers target Ubuntu, not ChromeOS.
- iso8859-1 12y agoOfficial Docker support in ChromeOS would be awesome. Most applications also work in dockerized Ubuntu.
