I hear most thinkpads are good with Linux! I don't know about newer models, but I worked on a Toshiba with Linux Mint. Was good! Maybe
@yoshuawuyts and@mafintosh can share their experiences running arch on their recent laptops?
Im never going back to a MacBook now that I have my Thinkpad. It's not the cheapest, but the hardware feels great. Only downside so far is the speaker isn't the best quality, and the charger isn't ideal. But in return: 4g modem and I use headphones all day anyway. Real happy!

Which thinkpad? I've the the original xps13 and the build quality leaves room for improvement (my screen is about to fall off, the edges are sharp, camera position is weird)

Carbon 1x 5th gen, with HDPI screen and 4g modem
It's so good! :D - 4 more replies

I'm on Dell XPS. They initially shipped me a broken computer but after returning it and getting one that works I'm super happy with it. Running arch with 0 hardware issues and great battery

Do the touchpads scroll like a mac touchpad?

4G modem on a laptop? Damn I feel like I live in the past now (with MBP). Looking forward to get a linux machine next

Running arch is sooooo nice these days if you get a commonly used linux laptop. I honestly have fewer hardware issues than I had on my 12" MB
