    Red Hat's Christian Schaller:

    This weekend the X1 Carbon with Fedora Workstation went live in North
    America on Lenovos webstore. This is a big milestone for us and for
    Lenovo as its the first time Fedora ships pre-installed on a laptop
    from a major vendor and its the first time the world';s largest laptop
    maker ships premium laptops with Linux directly to consumers. Currently
    only the X1 Carbon is available, but more models is on the way and more geographies will get added too soon.

    It seems Lenovo is taking its embrace of Linux quite seriously, with
    proper integration with things like Linux Vendor Firmware Service and
    Fwupd. The blog post goes into a number of other recent improvements
    the Fedora project is working on, too.

    Approximately $40 more for the Linux version, for the entry level i5
    version. Windows 10 version still discounted by pre-loaded stuff?
