What's hardware compatibility like? Did/do you struggle to find good portable machines to run Qubes on with solid wireless/bluetooth support? As somebody whos

  I have a T470 -- at the time the most recent T-series 14" Thinkpad. Everything pretty much worked fine? But that's just one data point. Perhaps if they're super new, you'll run into more issues. dom0 is hyperconservative with updates, so maybe you'll need to run testing-grade stuff to get all your hardware to work properly. I think I had an issue with WiFi + suspend/resume but that was easy to fix, and fixed by default now. (It involves reloading the driver after resume -- that's automatic now but the setting lives in a config file.)

    For what its worth the T4x0(s) series has been very good for Linux in general. We've been hopping the odd numbers every other year.

  Bluetooth needs futzing around with in Qubes, for sure. It took me a while to figure out how to get my Bluetooth devices to pair/connect correctly and to persist that through reboots.
