Toshiba to Close the Book on Its Laptop Unit

Are you keeping it on Windows or planning to throw Linux onto it?

Dell's XPS 13/15 line run Linux very well, as do Lenovo's Thinkpads.

Just wanted to second your recommendation and add that they also run Windows very well (although personally I ran Fedora on my previous ThinkPad and current Dell XPS 15).

If you do go down the Windows route, just make sure you create new installation media from the Microsoft website and do a clean install before anything else.

+1 for the Dell XPS 13. I'm running Arch Linux on one for work and I've had 0 hardware/driver issues, which is rare for a laptop.
