Chromebox/chromebook

Anyone use a Chromebox or Chromebook as a primary computer? I'm thinking about buying a Chromebox and going all in ChromeOS, but there's still a lot of limitations w/ software (e.g., no TurboTax, can't use eMusic, etc.).  Granted I wouldn't be tossing my Windows machine in the trash right away, but am looking for thoughts on those who have committed to ChromeOS.

I bought me wife a chromebook for Christmas and she really likes it. It's perfect for simple web tasks like surfing VC, paying bills, watching HBOgo. You can also use Chrome To Desktop to remote control your desktop as well as sync all your bookmarks and other Google apps between your devices.

Calling her chromebook from my phone via Google+ or Google messaging her from the same phone is a cool feature we use. She did our taxes with her chromebook via a web based app, not sure which one but I can find out for you.
