maybe new laptop

23:01 Saturday 27 June 2015 JST

I was looking at each of these systems online when Travis pointed out I haven't actually touched either one. They're each around $1000 from Think Penquin, with difference being the CPU, USB ports, and screen size.

Korora Penguin GNU / Linux Notebook

1. Hard Drive: 1TB
2. Memory: 16GB DDR3
3. Wireless N: Wireless N (TPE-NHMPCIE)
4. Matte Screen Upgrade (non-glossy): Glossy Wide Screen
5. Mouse: Traditional Wired Optical Mouse (for notebooks)
6. Notebook Warranty: 1 Yr Ltd Hardware Warranty
7. Distribution to Install: Debian 8 Jessie
8. AC Adapter: Japan - Plug Type JIS8303
9. Keyboard Layout: United States

But Travis brings up a very good point: I haven't touched the machines; maybe I will hate the keyboards, mouse pads, etc. Will my external keyboard be enough to keep me happy? Am I offending the gods if I use an Apple keyboard (after saying I'll buy no other Apple hardware)?
