I was so ready to snap one of these up, but it turns out Ubuntu 13.04 runs so well on my MBA that I have no need to switch hardware to stick with my Linux setup. That having been said, the Dell now represents a step-up for screen resolution.
Now if only this Dell or the X1 Carbon would rip off MagSafe, my decisions would be easier.
- mogrim 14y agoWhen you say "runs so well" do you mean a straight Ubuntu install, or did you need to start playing around in the terminal and generally faffing about to get it going? (Nothing against the terminal, but a straight install is likely to be more reliable, long term...)
- drivebyacct2 14y agoThe only thing I ran in the terminal after install was my script that apt-gets all the software I like. No drivers, no macfanctl, just a straight install. Media keys work, etc.
- matb33 14y agoIs it retina? I'm worried about how tiny everything will be... I haven't found anything concrete about how Unity handles high dpi Edit: you said MBA, I read MBP... Nevermind, no retina :)
