It is a low-power part designed for thin chassis, and it is honest to say it is a light-duty processor by current standards. Where it still works well is exactly what an ultrabook is for: web browsing, email, documents, spreadsheets, video playback and remote-desktop sessions. It is not a machine for compiling code or editing video.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eWhat makes it worth having is the combination of 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD in a 1.56kg metal body. A lightweight Linux distribution on this hardware feels quick and stays quick, and boots in seconds. For a travel machine, a second laptop, a workshop or lab unit, or a low-cost deployment where you supply your own software, the value is strong.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eBecause there is no operating system installed, this is a machine for someone comfortable running an installer. The 9480m has excellent Linux driver support — Ubuntu and Mint install cleanly with working Wi-Fi, graphics, audio and power management. Windows 10 will also install if you hold a licence. Note that the 4th Generation processor is not supported by Windows 11.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color:#0060a9;margin-top:22px;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n
