The battery life on my Chromebook jumped from 10 hours to 15 hours when I replaced ChromeOS with Linux. Trading all of that Javascript for C makes a huge difference on battery life.

May be the case, but 10 hours is plenty for me so not a real issue. The other advantages making up the full package are a big win for me. I still have an use full linux laptops and they are fine but they take a little more effort to set up and such.
