I have been looking for a laptop for a week now, from the previous deals I have seen, this seems sub-par, I like the screen and touchscreen is sweet, but Ryzen 4000, and 8gb ram kills it for me, the reason is I want a little lee way without worrying about using all the ram. Heck I just want 12gb at the very least. Good find, but I'll keep waiting for a slicker deal

**You haven't seen much better deals on Surface devices.

This Ryzen is very fast so not sure what you have been comparing it to.

Perhaps because the ryzen eats a couple of GB memory? That leaves 6 GB. For Linux, yes. For windows? Good luck.
