Lenovo shipping Linux pre-installed

24 Apr 2020

      Hey everyone,

Apparently Lenovo is planning on shipping Fedora on their Thinkpad lines,
and will use only packages from the official repos instead of custom
packages.

I think this is great news as somebody who shopped for Thinkpads before and
had to contact support about refunding a Windows license (turns out that
wasn't possible at the time). Having a distro pre-installed should mean
improved hardware compatibility, and maybe even be able contact support for
Linux-specific issues.
