ChromeOS is not for developers (as I mentioned).

Photoshop is already available online - it's not mature as is but once you got Gbit Internet, performance will not be an substantial issue. Your chromebook can be even weak because your images can be process on a cloud engine (which will be constantly upgraded and maintained and scaled at will - unlike your local machine).

 

Describing the weaknesses of the ChromeOS at present is perfectly fine but it'll be the future. 

As mentioned it is not my only machine - it is, however, a machine that I'm using most of the time already.

"once you got Gbit Internet" - and therein lies the rub. What's the major point of a laptop if you can't work well on the go? Admittedly, I'm using my Windows laptop mostly at home but when I'm out, I don't need to be connected. It's simply not feasible anyway.
