Sparkfun doesn't sell Chromebooks, and has no special affiliation with Google. They run a store and sell things to customers that want them. They're also really cool folks - I've met a few of them over the years.

No store can be expected to carry everything that anybody might want for anything, and Sparkfun has no obligation to support ChomeOS.

I mean, I see a retired ChromeOS debug cable on their website- https://www.sparkfun.com/products/retired/14746

But, why do you phrase this as some sort of negative? They sold a product, and probably retired it because of lack of sales? Is there more to this story?
