  If you don't mind me asking, which system do you have and do you find that the GPU drivers break frequently with updates? I'm in the middle of trying to decide between Lenovo and Apple too.

    It isn't hard to use an optimus card with Debian or most other distros nowadays you just need to install bumblebee (wheezy-backports for debian) with that you get improved battery life. I personally don't get GPU drivers breaking the computer but I don't use nvidias drivers I use nouveau but I also use Debian so a distro like Arch (which is more prone to packages breaking systems) might be much worse.

    Sorry - I didn't see this comment. I'm running Debian Sid. I believe that have the Nvidia card disabled (in the BIOS). I haven't had a single issue with my Drivers. I have a w520.
