You write that it's loud. How loud is that? I know it's hard to describe it, but at work I sit in a room with 5 others and I don't want to disturb them with my laptop.<br />Does the laptop get hot? You say in your review that you don't use to have it in your lap. When I work from home I use to sit in my sofa with the laptop in my lap. Would that be possible or will it get too hot after a while? Have you tried that after your review?<br />Do you know if it supports full disk encryption of a SSD via the bios? That you need to enter a password before it's boot at all.<br />Does it have any USB port, USB-C or USB-A, that support higher voltage for faster charging?<br />Have you ever used Asus ROG laptops? If so, any comparison with them? except that you have to wipe windows. ;-)<br /></comcode-quote><br />//// PUT YOUR REPORT BELOW \\\\<br /><br /> Add: Add: Font Size Color [Font] Arial Courier Georgia Impact Times Trebuchet Verdana Tahoma Geneva Helvetica [Size] 0.8 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 4 [Color] Black Blue Gray Green Orange Purple Red White Yellow This is a reported post for a post in the topic [post param="System76"]145[/post], by rosell [quote="76"] [quote="jacobgkau"] Those are actually the only technical differences, but the desktop processor is a huge deal.
