moin moin,

I hear that touch support in Ubuntu supports this laptop 2in1.
I found a review for the new X13 that looks good.

Sounds like it's easy to install and mostly works out of the box. I also
see the fingerprint reader not working as a feature :).
I don't see a way to buy it without the windows tax. Anyone know a way to
get an unloaded XPS from Dell?
Still wish I could get a good linux-powered KDE tablet instead.
ciao,

I'm considering replacing my tablet as it's gradeschool age and a bit
persnickety.
I'm less and less enthused with app stores and would prefer something with
a repository backing it. Preferably debian, but Ubuntu is acceptable.
Other debian-based distros might be an option.
As such, I'm considering a laptop that can double as a tablet.
I would prefer it to be functional as a laptop. Yes, that includes
containers and VMs :).
Battery life of a few hours is sufficient if it has a decent charging
mechanism.
I'm find with fliptop type things. Removable display to become a tablet
might also work.
This is a tool, so I would prefer somewhat regular install and updates.
I won't consider Lenovo or HP for a variety of reasons. We can talk about
it at Stammtisch.
Any recommendations?
ciao,
der.hans
