There are few things quite as emblematic of late stage capitalism than the concept of "planned obsolescence".

Sorry for the late response, I've been wading through my inbox to get back to most :)

That's gotta be why they make it so damn hard to uninstall ChromeOS... I like that Linux is being popularized more, but I hear whispers from the F(L)OSS community in my head that Canonical and Microsoft are one in the same. Its a bit confusing some of the rhetoric surrounding certain companies and software other than the blatantly obvious like Microsoft or Google, but I'll never quite understand programmer "martian"...

Have you worked on chrome books before and swapped the OS?
