#Linux : performance is, as expected, excellent. All of the hardware is supported (to the limits of my testing). There is, however, one annoyance. I think it might be limited to Plasma desktops (I need to test properly), but occasionally, when the machine suspends whilst left open and idle, it will get stuck in loop when coming back to life - that is, it'll resume, suspend, resume, suspend continuously. I've seen this before, but haven't debugged yet as Linux is not my primary OS.

#OpenBSD: the machine really shines here. Within the limits of the OS (i.e. no Bluetooth) the laptop runs wonderfully. It is significantly faster and more responsive than my T490, even when aggressively scaled down to 400Mhz when running on battery by apm. Battery life is also significantly better than the T490. Of course, this is all a function of the 11th gen Intel Core i5 CPU vs the 8th gen one. Still, it pleases me. Suspend/resume works perfectly here too. Media keys, work OOTB.
