For example ChomeOS: Basic/Pro/Business. This might help those who don't want to deal with extra bloat that could come with gaming and just want a basic chrome laptop while the pro version maybe made for Steam and allow more changes to the OS.

That actually a really good point. If they are smart given in the laptop market there are a large amount of people who just start of any conversation about what laptop to buy by saying "I'm not GAMING" to the person helping them pick one out, and gamers are all about that they either may or will use it for gaming I would change your tiers slightly: Chrome OS (Normal minimal locked OS machine you tell your grandpa who just uses his laptop to check facebook, email, and do banking to buy) Chrome OS Student (Machines you could buy that you could take to your school sys admin to fully lock down and work with the school system instead of them providing you one. Maybe gives you extra google drive space if you buy one as a perk?) Chrome OS G, Chrome OS Gaming, or Chrome OS Play (Versions that steam comes on out of the box, or maybe stadia if google decides to remember it again, unlocks more control focused at workloads like talked about in this video. dGPU would not be a requirement in my mind but I would argue that thunderbolt should be one, to allow for eGPU's, maybe it could require one OR the other instead though. Name is all about that gamer feel and you know how much gamers love their acronyms and letters however play could be a nice contrast to the work branding) Chrome OS Professional or Chrome OS Business or Chrome OS Work (The "workhorse" PC, a decent spec'd PC for getting things done on. The name would try to convey that this is a PC used for real work. Why you may want to give a more generic name like work though is you would be shocked how many of those "I'm not gaming" people come in with the expectation of buying a $1200 PC for pretty light workloads. These machines are all about fit, finish, and battery life. Maybe have a pro mode that opens up more control than usual but they would also have a business mode that locks down the machine for BYOD companies)

@agapp11able Agreed. ChromeOS should just become a standard Linux distro... but, sure, Google can hammer down on the GUI to make it super-simple user-friendly. It's not as if Google don't know how to do this, as that's kind of what Android is. Linux kernel but then they built their whole Android GUI on top of that and, like, ordinary pleb users use their Linux-powered phones all the time with minimal UI issues. And that is exactly what Valve are doing with SteamOS, of course. Standard Linux distro under the hood, but then with shiny user-friendly "Big Picture Mode 2.0" on top of that - and if you never select "Exit to Desktop" at any point on your Steam Deck, you needn't have any clue whatsoever that it's Linux running the show. Indeed, the logical thing would be to, you know, combine Android and ChromeOS into a single thing... which, under the hood, is just a standard Linux distro, but with all that Android GUI goodness, that comes bundled with the ChromeOS do-it-all-through-your-browser mentality. Basically, Google essentially has the same product - with duplicated effort - in different products, that all do it in different ways. This screams to the coder in me to "de-duplicate" the whole bloody lot. A single standard Linux distro - that can be installed on desktop, laptop, tablet or phone - with an Android-like UI (but responsive, so it adapts to the screen real estate it has available - and, for example, the "app grid" on an Android phone becomes a grid of "app tiles" on a desktop screen with additional information and stuff on a bigger screen that can show more) and adopts the Chromebook "do everything through the browser" apps model. So the kids learning with their Chromebooks buy Android phones - because it's actually the exact same OS - and it all remains sandboxed and secure and user-friendly, if you stick to the out-of-box experience, but it is a Linux distro underneath for the "power users" who want to go further. Again, look to SteamOS, which is a Linux distro, but makes the system partition "read only". So, out-of-the-box, you can't break it, because you don't have write access to anything important. Instead, you can install flatpaks in your home directory (and it's totally possible, with the Linux kernel, to sandbox that up for security - this is what Ubuntu's "snaps" or just general Docker containers are all about). One of the things that Linux is actually awesome for is that the kernel itself can absolutely lock down a system like you wouldn't believe. You can exactly specify how many resources each process can access - like, you can fire up a process and only allow it 2 cores of the 8 you've got and that it can only see 4GB RAM max, even though you've got 16GB installed, and stuff like that - and you can put processes into their own "namespaces" and give them different roots, so they simply can't see hardware devices or access files, as you've isolated them off into their own separate island away from everything else. That's out-of-the-box kernel functionality. All things like Docker containers or Ubuntu snaps are doing is putting the public face on the underlying mechanism. Google know this. Android is sandboxed up like no other OS. You have to be real clever with the UI design, granted, but you could have your cake and eat it. A single OS - works on all devices, be they ARM or x86 or whatever - which is all sandboxed up to Android levels, and has an Android-like user-friendly UI... But, hey, if Google ain't going to do it, then Valve are already creating that OS right now. Someone's going to eventually nail it, if they can have enough vision to see the potential that's already out there, but just needs someone to weave it all together just right.

Google should have stuck with the cloud for Chrome OS and had some kind of deal with steam. Steam has couch co-op through the cloud and if Google just took the idea of Stadia and worked with Steam there could be a cloud option for gamers as well as local. Then you could have the Chromebook play on the cloud with the Windows players playing locally.

I actually agree with Riley. introducing steam is countering what they want ChromeOS to be - a lightweight web focused OS where you don't need any hardware at all, and you use google docs, google slides, google sheets etc. they might need to re-brand ChromeOS if they make changes against their OG design philosophy.

7:20 isn't this where something like Window Home and Pro edition could work? Just have one version of Chrome OS that's a school/lightweight edition and one that is for gaming and more open. Chrome OS Class and Chrome OS Play (play can even have double meaning here, play as in play games, but also play as in go ahead and play around with the OS.). If Google did a really amazing job with their Chrome OS Play edition, they could even charge for that edition should they want to, that allows them to get some extra money or just generally get money from people that would otherwise avoid using google products so Google would lose money from that avenue. Then on the other hand it could be used as a way to keep the less knowledge people away from the more breakable version of the OS.

And it's worth mentioning that even when I used a Chromebook with a Celeron, it ran well considering the low-end, passively cooled CPU. Because it's not running a bloated-to-shit OS.

I was born in 1984 and started gaming on my dad's PC around 1991, before MS Windows. Years go by and MS Windows is still pretty much a requirement for gaming on PC. Sure, I'd love gaming on PC without Windows, but it still hasn't happened. So meanwhile, I'll just keep gaming on Windows. If Google or any other company is serious about it, just do it. I cannot begin to imagine how expensive it is but decade after decade I see multiple "you don't need Windows anymore" videos or whatever, and it is just not true. I don't care what I game on, the really important stuff are the games themselves (I have and play on consoles), but this "no windows" notion hasn't happened in the last 20+ years.

I have a chromebook (an ARM one to be specific, though the main issues are just Chrome OS being oversimplified to the point of creating issues) and love to use it for certain things (some light programming and some android games)... though it's extremely annoying to use, and I had an evening where I felt like I was doing nothing but doing a Powerwash (Factory Reset) every half an hour just testing out the things I can do... The for me most annoying thing is honestly the forced Powerwash when Going from Dev to Beta/Stable or from Beta to Stable. It's not even really "forced" as, if you are in a setup that can disable the Powerwash function, you will just wait till the new branch to be caught up before updating... Not great, as you may miss out on Security updates for that time, but at least better then being forced to setup everything again, which takes like 15 minutes if you just follow the basic stuff and download some stuff from the play store. Adding the Crostini Setup (which is just a few minutes) then setting up the Linux Environment back to where it was (for my setup, it's about half an hour of looking at the Terminal typing a handful of commands... luckily all my files to work with are in a Network Storage so I don't have to worry about getting these back on there.

Do you think all the other developers in the world are stupid and can't match the greatness of Microsoft, and that's the reason why they can't implement their proprietary docx format properly? No, it's because they purposefully make it difficult, if not impossible, in order to force people to use Word. Use any other word processor with an open format like odt, and I guarantee you will have far less compatibility issues with other word processors, if at all. Same with everything else really. They make it cumbersome to switch, and they buy into social pressure to ensure you stay with their stuff. You can't just switch, that's the whole reason they're ahead.

Google wants Chrome OS to be premium. Besides gaming the big issue with Chrome OS is the lack of professional desktop apps compared to macOS and Windows. Even though Chrome OS can run Linux apps, there aren't a lot of professional apps made for Linux. I know Android sort of fills the gap in that aspect but Google needs to make more of stronger push to get developers on board. So the difficult part would be convincing developers to also port their apps to Linux or to port their Android apps to ChromeOS in order to make Chrome OS a viable platform as well alongside macOS and Windows. However Google could take the charm away from Windows if it attracts these devs. With the advent of the M-series ARM chips for the Mac, I don't see how anyone can topple Apple at the moment especially when even the Mac devs are supporting the transition to ARM.

In fact, I think if you're trying to do a pi project that requires speakers, a mic, and a screen, a cheap chromebook is also a great option. I've also used it to control a robotic arm when the pi controlling it died in the past. And, in a pinch, using VS Code on it is fine. The 10-inch screen isn't big enough for serious work though.

One of those rules is that school districts have to install content filter to prevent kids from going to non-educational related websites or services. Its not because schools like to be evil and want to make kids suffer but its because there are many rules and regulations they need to follow. There's also the problem of bandwidth. If you and all your friends and classmates start playing and downloading games, you're going to use up a lot of bandwidth.

@@JJFlores197 The intention behind my comment was, and I think my comment was very unclear about this, sorry, that you should not use the computers at school nor the ones you borrow or lease from the school for anything except school work. The reason why is the same as why you should not do your banking and other personal stuff on open networks in airports, restaurants and such. It jeopardises your personal security, because eventually you will have to return the leased or borrowed computer and you dont really know where that school computer and all the information on it will end up. You need to treat school computers as if it was a borrowed computer in a library - even when you bring it home. Sure, the school will probably have a safe return policy regarding hard drives, but those policies are maintained by people and, as we all know, people fail. Some poor underpaid person in that security chain might sell a few of those machines somewhere other than where they were supposed to go or someone will steal a couple. On top of that, you are absolutely right. It is also a question of the price of bandwith. Also, I have seen countless times how one kid will fill up the school assigned group cloud storage with games and then the rest of the pupils/students have to sit for some times hours waiting while it syncs the files until they can actually begin doing some group work.
