I really hope they will sell this with no OS. My current computer is a two-year old X201, the only brand that sold laptops without windows, it was more powerful and even cheaper model... I love it, and works beautifully with ArchLinux. Had

Darn, am I that old at the age of 32? I start to find myself disqualified because of my age from a lot of new things that I do like a lot. Even worse that so many of my friends are on the other hand are in their middle-late twenties, and
