    @iFixit along with the option to buy new with Linux... Lenovo is killing it!

      @ljrk FWIW, Linux runs much better on my P14s than my MBA 😁

      @jcarax I had no issues with Asahi and soon-ish there'll be even USB-C DP mode and then I'm honestly fully satisfied ^^'

      But it's mostly the hardware of the MBAs that's just crazy good

        @iFixit fwiw I’ve had a bad experience with Lenovo. My ($1300) pc will freeze unexpectedly, randomly. And especially if the logi receiver is unplugged. No answer from the company as to how that gets fixed. And Linux can’t be installed on this model

          @ljrk It's better than a lot of laptops 15-20 years ago, in the dark days of compatibility. But DP alt and video decoding are pretty big shortcomings still. I do like it as a highly portable, passively cooled machine, but we'll hopefully see Snapdragon Elite support mature, and passive machines offered with that. The waiting game for new Macbooks to get hacked together support isn't great.

            @jcarax Oh totally, but QCom is also not really known for keeping up their promises and r/n every laptop of theirs was something of a letdown. The MBA is there already so I'm not in the market of buying new anyway.

                  @iFixit Pretty nice given my last 5 laptops have been used thinkpads 😅
                  Be nice if this found it's way in some form to the ultraportables like my current x12 detachable, would happily cope with a few extra mm of thickness to be able to upgrade ram

                      @iFixit except #Lenovo fucked up the #UltraNav so hard that it's useless..

                      • And that was the only reason to buy them over say a @frameworkcomputer, and that sucks.

                      • As for #repairability, Every #ThinkPad I've seen is a #downgrade to my #X230tablet (even the #Framework is!) and I've yet to find any good laptop that isn't garbage!

                        Add extra praises of: Lenovo sells its laptops pre-installed with Linux, at a cheaper price....

                        AND Lenovo's phone division, Motorola, partnered with privacy OS, GrapheneOS [ https://grapheneos.org/ ] to produce phones without Google.

                        Android is linux with spyware and handcuffs and a trillion links to controlling boss google.

                        Lenovo must be praised for trying to move away from enshittification. Cracks for freedom.

                          @ParabenAparaten Lenovo hasn't "ditched" Windows. They are still selling their Laptops with Windows pre-installed by default.

                          It has been possible to buy their Laptops with Linux pre-installed for quite some time already (or without an OS).

                          Yep, but that is super old, like since at least 10/15 years ?

                          But super recently, I saw a linux news about Lenovo ditching Windows on laptops

                          I will have to check my history, I'll pinpoint at it if I found again the piece of news in question

                                        Will it run Linux? Because otherwise, Windows is a non-starter.

                                          @freediverx @iFixit From my personal experience Lenovo ThinkPads have always run Linux very well. I'm expecting this to not be much different.
