I currently use a couple of recycled core duo 2 thinkpads. BIOS so of course GNU/Linux installs easy either whole disk or dual boot with windows.
In the future, I suppose I'll need to look to a Chromebook as a cheap platform for my GNU/Linux.
Unless people actually start making open hardware...
- grannyg00se 13y agoNo need to fear. I have a recent Thinkpad (T530) and it boots ArchLinux painlessly from USB or internal 32gig ssd. Also boots into windows8 from the main 120gig ssd if necessary. It's UEFI with secureboot disabled.
- lsiebert 13y agoYeah I did something similar on my T530. Booting into Windows is a pain, compared to Mint. Everything wants to update and reboot.
