I'm neither a Mac nor a Windows user.  Perhaps an upgrade to Linux is worth
considering, especially with Lenovo joining the list of companies supplying
Linux laptops.  Those Dell XPS running Linux are every bit as pretty and
solid as an Air. For my part I will likely stick to System76.

But I believe Microsoft released a Slate last fall running Windows 10 for
ARM.  I gather the main interest at this point is double the battery life.
Apparently the machine has been well reviewed.
