Linux works great on X1 Carbons, not so much on new Apple machines. Keep the X1 if you care about that. Also the next gen Carbons are supposed to have a 16:10

- alexhutcheson 6y agoI actually prefer Windows w/ WSL2 on my laptops rather than a bare-metal Linux install. It adds a bit of friction, but in return I never have any issue with external displays, sleep/wake, OS upgrades, etc. > Also the next gen Carbons are supposed to have a 16:10 screen. Yeah, a taller screen and Tiger Lake processors will probably be a significant improvement. However, I think they'll probably sell for close to "list price" when they are released (so $1500+ for a decent configuration). The build quality is a bargain at $830, not so much at $1500.
- bigdict 6y ago$830 is a great deal at those specs.
