Thx Jay -
There are a few reasons I’m interested in this device, and also a few reasons I’m anxious.
On the plus side, it’s a device with respectable battery life, a gen11 Intel processor with better integrated graphics and supposed greater power efficiency, and it has gen-4 Thunderbolt and dual SSDl slots. Great.
I don’t game and for me there drawbacks about graphics management. Pop!_OS has been a disappoint for me in the past year, so it forced me to look at other distros, which of course have their own Optimus solutions. It’s a PIA, in my opinion. Also, the Reddit chat room for System76 has had a lot of dialogue about trouble with their proprietary firmware, which makes me nervous. I assume they’ll figure that out.
Anyway, your thoughts welcome, and thanks for the good common-sense advice.
Reid
