Re:The new MacBook Pros with T2 chips do indeed kernel panic... by eropple on Saturday August 18, 2018 @05:09PM (#17790712)
The X1 is nice but the T480 is only a little bigger, handles heat a lot better, and has (mine does, at least) about 16 hours of battery life under Fedora.

It's hard to really recommend the X1 (or T480s) as a developer machine, IMO.

The current t480 is great, $2500 buys you an incredible rig.

Yeah. I paid $1600 and I'm thrilled with mine. Though, fair warning, dealing with Lenovo-the-company is a profound and terrible shitshow.
