You should get it because we all really want to know how it is

Yeah, I have a feeling I'll be taking one for the team. I have two requirements: Under 5 lbs and matte screen larger than 13". Conventional wisdom tells me to not use bleeding edge hardware from major manufacturers with Linux due to potential compatibility issues. Also, I simply don't have the time or energy to search for an older, but in good condition laptop. I figure this will be an opportunity for this company to potentially earn my business, as well as support a company interested in Linux-first computers.

Attending MangoCon is what convinced me to finally get a new laptop. I did buy a used MacBookPro 17" for my recording stuff (as it interfaces nicely with my Presonus equipment). I'm not interested in turning that into a Linux machine, but I wanted to make my next "main" computer a Linux box.

I got my Chromebook specifically for conferences. It's perfect for that.

About the laptop, not the waiting.
