My employer alone would be responsible for several hundred X1 Gen 10s running Linux across various parts of our company, I suspect.
- knorker 3y agoMy employer easily thousands. Maybe tens of thousands.
- trelane 3y agoNow imagine if all that money went to a vendor that actually cared
- knorker 3y agoIt's capitalism. Nobody actually cares. I'm very happy with my personal X1 Carbon, too. I'm very much NOT happy with the Librem laptop.
- trelane 3y agoI personally am glad to live in the days when Linux is an option and will be quite annoyed if it goes away again due to others' short-sightedness. > NOT happy with the Librem laptop. Then choose a different one? > It's capitalism. Nobody actually cares. Right, for Leovo anyway. So long as you continue to give them your money in exchange for lackluster Linux support, you will continue to get lackluster Linux support.

- knorker 3y agoI get orders of magnitude better support from Lenovo than Librem. And that's just from the company. And the community is also much better for Lenovo, support wise. >> NOT happy with the Librem laptop. > Then choose a different one? I did. Lenovo. I don't have a problem. > I personally am glad to live in the days when Linux is an option and will be quite annoyed if it goes away again due to others' short-sightedness. Lenovo's Linux market is huge. It's not going away. People buy them because they work great with Linux.
