Totally agree about the keyboard and processor/ram. Originally thought about getting the X13, but I recall the screens options weren't that good, and I prefer the larger size and bigger battery anyways.

As for Linux, I fully intended to dual boot Arch and Windows. Due to circumstance, I am stuck with a tiny 128GB NVMe and so I am using the default Windows for now. I've been watching this playlist of a user installing Arch on their T14s to help prep me on some of the quirks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihFPynCqfzc&list=PLiKgVPlhUN.... I hope that helps answer some of your questions.

Yeah, for what it's worth--I also am dual booting Windows (solely for games, wine isn't worth the trouble) and I've had absolutely no problems with it. In fact, it's buttery smooth with every game I've tried it on (CK3, Noita, Synthetik, Kenshi, Factorio, etc.).
