Ron Gilbert (GrumpyGamer)I've gotten too used to the silent Mac Laptops. Struggling to find an equally silent laptop I can use for Linux (and buy in NZ). Why does Apple have to make awesome hardware and also be a horrible company. Distros that work on Mac hardware are too experimental right now, don't recommend them. I know all about them. You're wasting the limited amount of typing you have in this life.
Ric@grumpygamer I've had my current laptop for a few years now, and honestly I don't think I've ever heard it whir a fan. Asus UX563F. It's my daily, always ran Linux on it, and it only gets rebooted about once every two months.
I've had some noisy Acers, HPs, and custom builds, and we have a couple of different generation MS Surfaces that occasionally try to take flight. But this Asus has been an impressive workhorse.
