How's the Windows support with this flow?
For a list of devices: https://docs.chrultrabook.com/docs/devices.html
All of them, specifically.
I don't want to think about which windows program can or can't run with Wine.
This includes:
* Microsoft software, from MSTeams to Windows itself
* Audio production software (DAWs and VST plug-ins)
* Games
* Device-specific software (like drivers/software for portable thermal printers)
* CAD (nTop, only supports Windows, for example, and don't tell me I don't need it; same for many Autodesk products. NX and Rhino don't have Linux support)
The last one is the most fun, as I'm a CAD developer who worked on nTop in particular.
Also drivers are often better on Linux.
CAD has been around since before IBM PC came out. It's not necessarily a demanding piece of software.
Still, scratch CAD. My favorite VST synths are Windows-based.
And I don't want to lug around extra kilograms just to make some noise.
Aside from Microsoft Office, the rest is workstation stuff, and Microsoft Office is pushing "web first" (at least if their pricing is to be believed, the lowest O365 subscriptions do not offer access to the native apps).
I think you missed the point of the question.
> the rest is workstation stuff
Yes, I want to be able to run workstation stuff on the small computer I carry everywhere, so that I don't have to carry my workstation everywhere.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
Your e-bike can’t tow a carriage either, that’s not strange.
How's nTop Linux support coming along?
The hardware feels great to hold (though the touchpad is still meh). I covered the Google logos with a glossy black vinyl Obsidian sticker.
