I hear lots of good things about System76. I have a nice light laptop
from ZaReason. I'm quite happy with it as my primary laptop.

I also have an aircraft carrier for times that I need to live on a laptop
for an extended period. Not as powerful as Brian's helicarrier, but mine
also doesn't have enough fans to levitate.

I checked both ZaReason and System76 before posting and neither had a
laptop that converts to tablet.

The laptop is my 3rd ZaReason device in the last decade. I've been quite
happy with their products and support. Not that I require much of the
latter.

ciao,
