I was I night shopping eBay and an off lease 16/512 OLED XPS shows up and away we went. It got in earlier this morning I dropped in a 2TB NVME plugged in Ventoy and install OpenSUSE Leap. This screen is just wow, I thought my MBA screen was nice but this thing is just better in every way. We'll see how things go longer term but I don't think I want to purchase another laptop without OLED.

After I realized the computer is pretty great I replaced the battery and the thermal compound. The battery life isn't is a couple hours short of the MBA and after the thermal compound change the fans do start but don't make much noise.

I'm now a road warrior and this computer has become the default
