Ubuntu on MSI GP73 Leopard 8RE?












1















I'm interested in buying an MSI GP73 Leopard 8RE Laptop. What about using Ubuntu on it?



Does it work well?



Can I buy it with Windows 10 and install Ubuntu on first use?

  • I think 8th gen Intel Cores require the new kernel version Ubuntu 18.04 has, but maybe 16.04 has it too by now.
