Absolutely, I would too. They are fantastic products.

I did some Googling yesterday and the last word on the matter is that Photo would cost $500k alone, which they couldn't see recuperating.[1]

I'm pretty sure they could recoup the cost if they made sure their installer could install on ChromeOS's Linux container. The number of Chromebooks out there is staggering, and is starving for great graphics software. This would also be a great way to get ahead of Adobe in the education space, as it appears Chromebooks have taken over education (at least k-12 in the US).
