The touchpad doesn't work properly on windows either, and the CPU draws a lot of wattage no matter what OS you use. I would bet on most people having a similar experience between the X1 Extreme and the X1 Carbon, but sure, maybe the design has improved too. The fact of the matter is that the X1 Extreme suffers the same disease as many other Intel ultrabooks. It doesn't have sufficient heat dissipation for the processor, or battery capacity to service its power hunger. And it comes with synaptics touch pad.
