Linux for Microsoft Surface devices. It is reality!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yeah, seems like a deal breaker to me. What do you even gain then? Performance improvements?
We like Linux. Freedom. Privacy. GNOME UI is really well adapted for tablets with it's gestures and overview effect. Plasma is also very good. Animations are way more smooth and responsive than on Windows.
This comment states that everything good with Book 2 so maybe Book 1 will also have good battery life.
Unfortunately I have the surface book 1 but I am happy for people running Linux :)
I think it will be similar experience.
