I hope so. I had a Google Pixelbook, and with the Linux container support (aka Crostini) it was an ideal developer laptop, especially as the Linux support improved over time. I was worried they were going to drop it as the Pixel Slate is much more of a consumer device.
Would love to see another Pixelbook with great performance and stability for Linux apps.
I wouldn't be ever paying for space constrained Chromebooks, when I can get proper Linux laptop around 300 euros, with GPUs not stuck in GL ES 3.0 hardware level and plenty of SSD space.
To each their own. If I were solely looking for "a Linux laptop", correct, I'd get something else. But I find the combination of Crostini and ChromeOS ideal for me:
1. I can run any Android app on the device. I find this incredibly useful.
2. On the ChromeOS side of things, everything really "just works" for me - the Pixelbook is a really great combo of hardware and software.
3. There definitely were some Linux hiccups but they continually improved over time. The was container backups work in the UI is especially simple and easy to use.
