linux machine... pat, winlink, had openbsd and freebsd on it for a while...

The X1 Carbon (Gen 7) weights 1160 grams.

I do have Arch Linux installed — which is my daily driver. I sometimes
boot from another NVME disk via a USB adapter into FreeBSD or OpenBSD
to keep them up to date.

I would like to have more power and RAM on this machine (more power cores)
but hey, it is really small so I will live with it...
