You don’t need a car. You can just walk everywhere.

This is surely a paid piece 'sponsored' by Google?

Netbooks are the next big thing! Oh wait, we already tried that...

Assuming you don't need to compile software

Crostini. The latest (bleeding edge) version of ChromeOS supports (with a GUI) running almost any Linux software, including Visual Studio Code, Android Studio, etc. It's fantastic, supported, and does not require an insecure switch to "dev mode" or anything.

I keep expecting Microsoft to announce a web-based IDE (based on their work with VS Code) that makes use of their Visual Studio Team Services code repository work and extensive set of CI/CD tools to enable "compiling in the browser" a real thing. They've already got a lightweight version of this going with Azure Functions which you can edit (with Intellisense, I belive) and commit right in the browser.
