I think you misunderstood what was my point, my point wasn't that developer suggests chromebook (I don't personally),My point was if chromebook would have ordinary stuff (like you said) it was much superior influence on developers (almost all of developers I know, would jump into linux base desktop if google can provide perfect DE), because of google's open source background. the influence neither microsoft or apple don't have.But sadly the are missing such huge interest on market , just because of their ego, it took 7 years to understand Google need a desktop operating system.if they do not provide operating system, someone like microsoft and its smart ceo Nadalla would come and steal whole their web based user base in long term.And effectively can kill google.

p.s. look at how small was canonical. whole canonical investment on ubuntu is something google can throw away.just for securing its user base.
