The only good part about Macs is the hardware. I would much rather run a normal linux distro instead.

Putting OS X on $200 Chromebook is like buying a barn and thinking you will get 1000-acre piece of land with it.

The only good part about Macs is the UI. There used to be Mac clones made with commodity hardware, but they sold so well they threatened Apple's ridiculously inefficient margins.

Apple's supply chain isn't as bad now, but if all you want is a browser there's no reason to get it from them.
