Some of them probably. You can load ChromeOS in a virtualbox to try out and
see the results. Another good tryout is, spend a couple of hours only using
stuff you can access from the "Apps" button in the top left toolbar in
Chrome. Only use stuff from there, resist the urge to go to the Windows menu
or command prompt for anything. If you find that comfortable and everything
you need is there then you might be a good Chromebook candidate.
