Thanks for all of your suggestions. I already own a #thinkpadt450s and have just received a #thinkpadx1carbon. #lenovo customer service is no good. I originally ordered online through them, they took money and 2 weeks later, no updates, no product. Turns out they shipped it to some address that doesn't even exist in my city. Hoping to get the refund I fought for on the phone. So, it was #amazon for the win. Now, time to wipe the #windows10 malware and install #popos.

Damn, I want a #pinebookpro, but don't have any justification for it. My #thinkpadt450s is still working just fine.

So, despite having tried multiple installations of #arch using #gnome, #kde, and then #cinnamon, I decided to go with #solus on my #thinkpadt450s. Like #arch, it is also a rolling distro. I have tried #solus in the past on VMs, but never a physical machine. I appreciate the freedom of choice that #linux gives its community. So many distros, so many DEs, so many different applications...oh my!
