@cmuratori On a Mac you'll need to replace the boot loader with rEFIt but that's easy to do.
So if I give up on having a trackpad, what laptop do I buy? Are MacBook Pros the best thing? Looks like they run Ubuntu OK...

@cmuratori the Razer is supposed to be good, why not just get that? Do you need a GPU? http://www.anandtech.com/show/7271/asus-announces-zenbook-ux301-and-ux302-haswell-ultrabooks … -
@GrumpyHook The Razer's screen is supposed to be terrible (assuming you mean the Razer Blade)? - Show replies

@cmuratori Dual booting Ubuntu on a Windows 8 laptop is absolute hell. The boot loader simply doesn't recognize it. -
@_Wolfos I don't dual boot. I vaporize Windows and run Linux exclusively. Does that work OK? - Show replies

@cmuratori put a value on your time, dump ubuntu and use osx. avoid macports. if u must, use virtualbox. -
@noojon I'm pretty sure I'm done with commercial OSes. I just don't trust the companies anymore, what with iOS and Windows 8 being locked... - Show replies

@cmuratori Nvidia doesn't support Optimus graphics (rMBP) on Linux, I've given up trying to get it working right on mine, it's a nightmare -
@modeless I run Optimus all the time on my Vaio, via Bumblebee... works better than it did on Windows! - Show replies
