    One hand up over here, but it runs Fedora so not affected.

    We've been winding down using them, but still probably have a couple of hundred around. Similar to above though, they are all running our own image so wouldn't be effected.

    My sister does have an off the shelf one, so I may need to take a look at it some point.

    Lenovo is cheap with awesome design, what we expect. But they likely going to come up with a fix very soon.

    Shame as they make good stuff. Got a Chromebook last November for under 200 notes. Great little machine.
