If the goal is to have the most up to date bleeding edge software, but have it on a critical machine, consider immutable distro like Fedora Silverblue or OpenSuse Aeon. Especially the latter will be just days behind Arch, and if an update breaks something you just roll back and try updating again in a week.

I used Silverblue as my main work system and this saved me a few times.

There is a free tier with limitation that your designs are open for others to see. Not ideal, but perfectly fine for tinkering.

If you have a choice - use Onshape. Fully featured CAD system, on par with SolidWorks and such, works perfectly on Linux out of the box.

This works both ways. In sure if you scooped Malmö out of Sweden it would pop up even higher. ;)

No metric is perfect.

I ordered one. First units should be shipped early December. Right now they seem to be some out - just few days ago you could order with 7-8 weeks delivery, now it's just 'notify when available'.

Yes, finally something better than 1080p!

No pen. I used to have one with Surface Pro but in the end I never used it.

Plus if I decide I really need it the StarLite uses this open standard meaning you can use whichever pen later.

Per latest updates people should start getting their hands on first units early December. I have pre-ordered mine almost 3 months ago now and can't wait!

The problem with older machines is the web browsing, not the system itself. You could use a browser with Java script disabled but a lot of websites will refuse to work.

You have to sacrifice with browser functionality to improve performance.

I think the biggest benefit is for people that cannot code or are just learning. Before a python script to do X or Y was a real problem. Now it is easy.

Plus it may help with Linux adoption - LLM can describe few commands in terminal plus some text config easily, but will struggle with Windows-like graphical configuration.
