      Why, is the Intel option sub-par? I just got the AMD version because my older laptop has NVIDIA hybrid graphics, which is a serious pain in the ass on Linux. I also wanted to play with Wayland. But why do you dislike the Intel version?

      Thanks. I’m already having so much fun. My older laptop has NVIDIA hybrid graphics, so I was actually a bit flabbergasted at how little I had to do to get Linux working properly on this thing.

    That’s awesome! I have a second gen l14 and it’s such a great machine. I’m sure the t16 is a whole other level.

      Thank you; I am enjoying it very much so far. It blows my 5-year-old Acer Nitro 5 out of the water. I hope you enjoy yours too.

    Would buy an AMD based T14s or T14 but they removed the rj45 connector from them and I won’t pay that money for a childrens toy. For some reason, some intel models still have it. Why??

      That is very strange. I wonder how that decision got made. But funnily enough, that is the exact reason I went for the T16 over the Z16, which was priced similarly during the sale I took advantage of for this. I could have swallowed the lack of USB-A ports, because docks are not that expensive where I live, but for fuck’s sake. Give me rj45 or give me death.
