I wish this had a pen. I’m waiting for a Linux tablet that can be used with Krita.
I’d buy it in a second if it had a pen. Like the wacom/spen on the Samsung tablets
Well there’s always the option to buy something like a Samsung Galaxy Book3 360. It’s a laptop that comes with an AMOLED touchscreen, a 360° hinge and the S-Pen. You can put a GNU/Linux distribution on it and enjoy free/libre and open-source software with a tablet-like user experience while keeping your integrated keyboard and touchpad (it’s the best of both worlds!), and the S-Pen is amazing and works on Linux because it uses standardised Wacom protocols. They’re not inexpensive though.
That’s not a bad idea. Thanks for the recomendation! I had forgotten that s-pens use wacom tech.
I want one! Well, I’d rather have one with a 10" display, but this looks good too.
Paid 200 for an old surface, it literally races with arch. No problems whatsoever. But libreboot would be nice.

Thank you, goodnight.
$498
optional keyboard cover for an extra $101.
Ah, I understand. It’s an attempt to replicate Steve “unwashed” Jobs’ strategy, where buying overpriced stuff makes you BETTER, DIFFERENT and UNIQUE. Am I right?
Do you think it is overpriced?
I was doing the configure your device option but I have no clue if the ”additional language” is the external keyboard. It has to be(?) :)
From another post about this yesterday, I found in the specifications section of their website, a “what’s in the box”: No mention of a keyboard. So the base model has no keyboard. So ya, choosing the layout is also opting for the keyboard, and, adding an extra ~$100 to the price.
Do you think it is overpriced?
Given its capabilities and the fact that you can buy used MS notebook/360 device for such a price? Of course.
Can someone explain why this thing exists?
Why do you exist?
I exist to bath in the glory of your spam-y-ness.
It’s an MS Surface for Linux users.
I liked the look of those when they came out. It was such a pity they where WindowsOs.
To sell to people who only buy devices with Linux pre-installed. But with no Surface or Apple Pencile like input device it’s just a fancy tablet with Linux.
