Lenovo made fun of its new Linux initiative several months ago (update your memories here and here).Just in time to fulfill its “Summer 2020” promise, ThinkPads’ first wave with Fedora technology is now on sale in the Lenovo online store.it’s not just this expected release that excites me; that’s how refreshing they make the Linux option.

I still can’t help compare this to Dell’s “Project Sputnik” offerings, such as XPS Thirteen Developer Edition, which remain difficult to achieve unless intentionally stopped on the company’s compromised Linux page.
With the introduction of Lenovo, anyone who buys the latest ThinkPad X1 Carbon will be presented with a Linux option and will also see the apparent difference in value, with Fedora’s option starting at $1,287, well below the Windows 10 input level.Offer.
It is highlighted:
Systems are available lately in the United States, followed in Europe and other parts of the world.Fedora developers are also entitled to a discount.
