Except, correct me if I'm wrong. Here it's much MUCH easier to fix/change yourself.

  In the MBP case you just waited for ~7 days for the fix to be delivered to you automatically. In this case you figure out how to update your BIOS under linux which is often non-trivial and then figure out how to install this which has a bunch of caveats: https://github.com/erpalma/lenovo-throttling-fix https://github.com/erpalma/lenovo-throttling-fix . There doesn't seem to be any indication what a 'real' fix is and whom is going to provide it. Which one is 'MUCH easier' is up to you.

    Depending on others is an option for sure, just leaves you feeling rather powerless doesn't it?

    I'm all in with team penguin, but a windows 10 to go usb isn't that hard to make

    How well did Linux run out of the box on the new MacBooks on shipping day?

      They simply don't, and are unlikely to every comfortably do so due to how custom the hardware is getting (ie, the keyboard is a SPI device).

        I agree, and that's exactly my point. They're comparing a stumble in Lenovo's Linux support to Apple's MacOS support.
