Microsoft Surface hardware is popular because it’s genuinely nice First attempt: Surface Go (versus iPad Pro)Īfter installing and modifying Debian GNU/Linux on Surface Go, dubbed “Willem OS”, I tried to make it my main computer. People are doing this and you could do it yourself, too. The “SurfaceLinux” reddit page is is full of interesting user stories worth checking out. Their Surface line-up includes different laptops and tablets. Microsoft Surface hardware and LinuxĪs history is full of sweet irony, it’s Microsoft that actually makes some pretty handsome hardware that works well with Linux. Apparently, many of you are looking for an alternative for the locked down operating systems that are usually installed on tablets (like iPadOS, Android or Windows 10S). My earlier post on installing Debian GNU/Linux on Surface GO received a ton of attention. If you’re thinking about installing Linux on a tablet: you’re not alone. This time I set out to refine my tablet software to replace my iPad. But I still preferred my iPad Pro, mainly because of its polished user experience. I learned a great deal about what I like about tablets. Earlier this year I tried to create my own tablet operating system by installing Debian GNU/Linux on a Microsoft Surface Go tablet.
