FWIW, I bought this, last Nov., and I don't remember having much trouble with
Ubuntu 18 LTS.
One thing I wasn't expecting - the Bluetooth connected to the USB on the
motherboard. I hooked it up, but, I don't really use it. The wifi works fine,

I'd get a business class Dell, if I had to make a quick decision. Most consumer

I just dabble with GIMP and Imagemagick. I've never worked with ARW files, but,
they don't look like they're particularly special. I would just open them with
