@cwebber Oh, do let me know your experiences in agonizing detail! I talked to them for a good 20m or so at LP and was impressed by the details of some of their work. I was mainly talking to them about some security features.

I really would like a modern laptop. But getting rid of the X200 will be hard, in part for the same reason you mentioned: a dock. We have USB-C docks at work and I despise the thing. Hardware docks Just Work. But I haven't done any research on USB-C docks on GNU/Linux.

I also asked them if they have plans to add a TrackPoint device. Unfortunately, they said it'd take too much re-working of the hardware, so it's not something they'd do right now. :(
