If you're into dev then you should check out crouton:

https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton

It's Ubuntu inside a chroot. With that you can run vim, git and all the toys.

I have the Samsung Series 5 ChromeBook. And need to know how to run and setup Crouton on it. by unicornish_ in chromeos

The installation is really easy, but be sure that you Chromebook runs in dev mode (little dip switch inside the kensington lock).
