// , I want to see whether I can install Trisquel 7.0 LTS Belenos on either of these, the L512X or the MJVE2LL/A.

Has anyone had a go with these models, or models like them?

I know TriSquel is based on Debian, and Debian works on the Dell XPS L512X, but I don't know whether anyone has tried either of the above laptops out with those distributions without the non-free components.

If cpu is Intel and gpu Intel, I think yes. Macintosh AirPort I think that wouldn't work. I had to much problems Mac's AirPort from MacBook Air 2009, because it is a broadcom, and have a proprietary connection, can't be replaced for one different.

Avoid Skylake (yes, avoid Skylake) and you should be fine graphics-wise.

wi-Fi, on the other hand....well, a USB adapter ain't that bad!

Yes, now it's time to tell people to avoid Skylake and later, instead of just saying to go with Intel.

The next king will be PowerPC or MIPS, maybe.
Console.Writeline("May be.")
{
System.out.println("/nMay be");
