I'm selling my System76 Pangolin Performance notebook computer. System76 is a company that custom builds machines that come pre-loaded with Ubuntu Linux. This machine is a beast and I've loved it. I'm selling it for two reasons:
- It's a little heavy
- I wanted to switch to Mac
I've used Linux since about 1997. I've been through distro kicks of Redhat, SuSE, Mandrake, Slackware with brief diversions to FreeBSD and OpenBSD. Linux and Unix have been my main operating system choices for a long time. I had avoided Mac because I was under the assumption that it wasn't a true Unix variant. It's actually registered with the Single UNIX Specification version 3 since 2007. I gave it a few years before trying it (despite my false understanding of its Unix-y-ness), then got hooked on OS X while working at Expedia. Since leaving Expedia, I've wanted to delve into OS X development using Swift… and that's a little difficult to do on Linux. Best B
