Hi All,

I'm looking at buying a new laptop for taking on training trips, sooooo
many options though.  I'd prefer the base OS to be Linux, but may be swayed
by OSX if the system is capable of dual booting linux in case it drives me
round the bend too much.  I'd like to run Vulkan on it once the drivers
roll out which may well mean OSX is out of the picture for quite a while as
I haven't seen any noise about Apple adopting Vulkan.

So far my front runners are the Google Pixel 2015 and Macbook Pro 13 2015.
The later has better storage and basic capabilities of the OS.  However,
I'm happy with dual boot so in theory should be able to make the Pixel more
capable.

What experience do others in the community have on the laptop front?  How
is the OSG/OpenGL experience on the latest Intel embedded graphics?

Cheers,
Robert.
