I never understood why they keep manufacturing these platform locked monstrosities. I bet no Linux distro will properly support it. Once I made a mistake and bought MS Surface Book, which now is a magnesium brick that doesn't last a few hours without a power socket. I'd rather bought an intel based desktop for that money, at least it would age better.

I find it strange to seriously consider any intel laptop these days for portable work.



What percentage of laptop users do you think ever even consider installing a different OS?
