Is Linux possible on a Surface? It to me looks like the only possible replacement for an MBP right now, but I too could not handle Windows for a second.

- Philipp__ 10y agoI don't have nerves nor time to write drivers... no way in hell I'll buy Surface device and fiddle with Linux on it. I think you can get much better laptops for same price, plus I have opportunity to install FreeBSD on them, where on Durface it isn't possible, or you have to sacrifice certain functions/components.
