> Streaming Photoshop can be run on any Chromebook or Chrome Browser.

It doesn't necessarily mean that they disable support for chrome on linux. It's possible that it can run on Chrome for Linux but Adobe won't necessarily provide support in the same way that they provide support for the Windows version.

That's probably the main reason. It's too bad though because it would be great to have it available on linux, even in an unsupported offering.

chances are that once it comes out someone will hack it/reverse it to "run" on a standard Linux setup

Probably just heavy collaboration with Google, and Google wanting to push Chromebooks.

ChromeOS is gentoo linux. I consider this a Photoshop port. :-)
