#6I really want one of these, but the ergonomics look awful.
Is there a technical reason they only come with low resolution (1080p) screens? (“Linux” is not a valid reason...)

Yeah I would have bought one when I was shopping but numpads on a laptop are a terrible idea. I ended up going for a Dell Precision 15 instead.
