Wondering if I should gift myself a #PinebookPro , to those who have one: what do you use it for? Daily driver? Away from proper computer replacement?

My current laptop is quite light and works well, so ... I don't know

@lopeztel summoning @lupyuen with success story. This epic guy develops software using #pinebookpro and makes a lot of sexy screenshots.

@efftoyz @lupyuen I will try to follow in those footsteps, also I guess development on #ARM is another good excuse!

@lopeztel @efftoyz I love my Pro because its so light that I can bring it around anywhere to do my writing and coding... Even inspecting Bluetooth packets in the airwaves on a train 😀

An Arm64 notebook like Pinebook Pro is wonderfully different from Intel notebooks... It sips less power, so it won't get hot, doesn't need a fan, and can last at least 6 hours on battery.

(That's the future of new Arm64 MacBooks! 😀)

I used to think Pinebook Pro was sluggish... Then I realised my Debian Mate apps were actually running in 32-bit mode. After upgrading to 64-bit everything just flies! 😀
