Then how can I run turbotax on a chromebook

You may not be able to run the downloaded version ... you can use the ONLINE version instead.  <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/">https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/onlin...>

You can run TurboTax On-line from a ChromeBook on the Intuit web site, using the Chrome browser.  You CANNOT install TurboTax Desktop (from a CD or download) to a ChromeBook.  Only software from the Chrome (Google) Web Store can be installed on the Chromebook itself.  There is a TurboTax app for it there, but that just simplifies using TurboTax On-line to a sort of App feel instead of a web-page view.

OK so I have a Chromebook & a Turbotax Deluxe CD.  How can I get my money back for the CD so I can file using Turbotax Online?

You can only use TurboTax On-Line on a Chromebook (since you don't have the drive to store a desktop version of TurboTax on).
