Last night I looked at a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 Series 2-in-1 (http://www.dell.com/us/p/inspiron-11-3147-laptop/pd?oc=fncwr1203sddr&l=en&s=dhs), which is about the size I want, though I don't care much about the touchscreen. I don't know if it falls in the Linux-friendly Dell professional line or, if it does not, what the differences might be that would make Linux installation difficult. Does anyone have experience with that system, or know enough about it to make a judgement? Ken Kenneth H.
