  - Password managers, music apps, etc available via Android appstore
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
Advantages&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;  - Fast time to productivity because Crostini takes a few clicks, then apt-get everything
  - Native &amp;quot;File Manager&amp;quot; integration makes it painless to move files to and from VM
  - Desktop apps in the VM appear in ChromeOS apps menu without hassle of X11.app, SSH forwarding, etc
  - Android integration to unlock the laptop, etc works great
  - Hardware built-in FIDO U2F device
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
Disadvantages&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;  - ChromeOS 70 still crashes once and awhile inexplicably (weekly)
  - Android apps can be janky to resize
  - Multi-display with Android apps sometimes doesn&amp;#x27;t work
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
Overall I feel more productive on my Pixelbook vs OSX.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Chrome OS: Ready for Web Development [video]</title><url>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTmAtXoPkgw</url></story>

Some other con&amp;#x27;s I&amp;#x27;ve noticed.&lt;p&gt;1.  Multi-monitor support can get a bit flaky when using more than one monitor.
2.  While is is pretty speedy,  you do run into performance limitations due to it only having a dual core processor.
3.  Many Android apps are not as fully featured as their OS-X counterparts.  Yes you could use them all in Crostini, but now your going through another virtualization layer, plus the integration is still not fully there.&lt;p&gt;All of that being said, I used to be a crouton user and it is stable enough that I am not longer doing that....though the lack of USB device support is a bummer (and was supported in crouton).</text><parent_chain><item><author>philips</author><text>Anecdote: I stopped using OSX for primary development about 7 months ago and started using a Pixelbook + Crostini exclusively.&lt;p&gt;Par&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;  - Hassle free desktop experience on par with OSX
