> Will Google allow you to install a patched version on a native Chrome OS notebook?

The answer is an unqualified yes. According to Google, jailbreak mode is a feature of Chrome OS hardware. On the Cr-48, it requires flipping a small switch under the battery.

If it's a hardware feature, who knows what the other hardware vendors will do with that?
You don't have to buy that hardware. The point is Google is all in favor of you having control.
