I have Xubuntu running on one of these and, for the most part, love this machine. There is one design defect and a couple of nitpicks I have:
- The webcam is below the screen ... I don't want to join a video conference when the primary view is my nose hair.
- Why do "modern" slim devices only have two USB ports? There is room on the chassis for more (I don't know about the interior layout).
- We've tried several of the Dell docks with these ... while I love the fact that the laptop charges through the same cable that's used for everything else (video, audio, HID devices), it's a bit buggy. Two examples are that: 1) you have to plug speakers into the computer's audio jack after the computer is attached to the dock and booted and 2) you have to be careful the magnetic switch doesn't tell the laptop/dock your lid is closed - in my case the keyboard and mouse connected to the dock become disabled even when the laptop wakes back up.
