Sorry, but people like me hope they don't waste resources trying to do that.

That means more testing time, and bug fixes for an OS that is overall less powerful and only a tiny fraction of the market compared to Win/Mac machines.

Every additional OS they support means additional resources. I'd rather they make the most of the current OS choices.

As a remote, then that makes sense to me, but not as a full blown OS to support. (Interfaces are another can of worms...)

They don't need to develop an app for Chrome OS.  They need to fix networking on the existing Android App.

So, now that the "best" answer is three years old with its accompanying attitude completely outdated, Chrome OS has emerged as a legitimate contender in the personal computing space, and BandLab has successfully debuted a legitimate DAW for the platform, what is preventing PreSonus from compiling drivers for their hardware to support what is basically another Linux fork? Let's maybe make something positive happen in 2020 given that the year has so far been decidedly the worst in quite a while.
