Now available the Lemur Pro: https://system76.com/laptops/lemur
I have a System76 Gazelle.
Info: it comes with Gnome. If you want Xubuntu, it's up to you. They
offer several suggestions on issues you might have with other desktops.
They do not officially support any other desktop. YMMV with desktop and
video driver.
My experience was Xubuntu went to a blank screen after logging in. I
tried all their suggestions, to no avail. Finally I did a new install,
next to Gnome, and it worked. Nothing works like the Big Hammer Approach.
There are a few issues I'm working on, including backlit keyboard,
insane trackpad, and other minor things, but it works. I don't have a
touchscreen, so I can't comment. If you can afford it, go with the
faster NVE drives, at least for the OS drive. The AMD chip laptop is a
great deal.
System76's communication and service is second to none. And they're *nice*.
I have yet to have any serious issues with Xubuntu on any laptop, and
that's quite a few of them. The best way to test is to run it live, from
the install disc/usb. This should expose things that might cause
problems. Also pay attention to the newer UEFI boot - you may have to
make adjustments to the boot media.
