Doesn't look like it's an install-it-and-run-it setup quite yet.
Won't come till April 3rd so I can always cancel. No lighted keypad tho.
BTW, I found the code using the Slick Deals extension. It ran about a dozen and found one. R8QKNX4536PWZL
Edit: Ordered it. $59 off. Free shipping.
ZorinGroup does hope to release an ARM version of Zorin OS in the future.
I can't predict the future of laptops, it may work out well if it has ARM on board and the battery lasts a long time.
Especially considering that the SnapDragon 8 Gen 3 is comparable with an Intel i7, with a TDP of only 7 to 9 W.
If I were in the market for an ARM processor machine, I'd go for the Gen 3 CPUs... they're supposedly ~85% faster than the Gen 2 CPUs, and the GPU is ~60% faster, with the same TDP.
Essentially, cell phone processors are becoming so powerful that they can now be used in laptops and desktops.
