The hackers would have to get to Google servers to get to their OS code, never happen.
The chromebook may not be for everyone (just like Apple or Microsoft), but, like I said, I use it 99.9% of the time.

Your points are valid but never say never. The Google cloud being hacked is not beyond the realm of possibility and having your data there means you can only access it with an internet connection which could be inconvenient for some. To access on a thumb drive makes it slow. People can encrypt their data on their own machines but are either not technically capable or lazy. I already said in a previous post that I am not a fan of Microsoft or Apple either. My next computer will be Linux.
