Hi, just looking for suggestions for sub 12 inch laptops, I got a very poorly running Acer Aspire ONE recently but still enjoying my time with it despite the fact it can’t even play a youtube video.

Edit: No budget or requirements besides being small,can be new or old as well. Mainly interested in good linux support.

  • I have a Pixel C that none of the Linux distros support. So I’m running one of the OSS Android distros, but it’s still fucking Android.

    I’d love to find as nice a combo - great build, small size (10" screen), detachable yet integrated keyboard - that runs Linux. Sounds a lot like what you’re looking for.

    I think there are 11” Dell XPSes. I’ve owned a couple of those, and they’re pretty good, and they have great Linux support if that’s your thing.

    It’s a 12.5 inch device:

    Star Labs’ StarLite

    Linux support should be excellent.

    Though, unfortunately, Star Labs’ reputation regarding communicating delivery times for their products leaves a lot to desire.

    Still, it’s worth a look if you’re not particularly in a hurry.
