Are there other companies doing similiar projects? This is a good step in the right direction but there are some major drawbacks for me:

- 3:2 screen makes the laptop bigger and adds space thats pretty much useless except for video editing I guess

- No option without camera, mic and fingerprint reader

- Intel CPU

- Thin instead of robust

- American company

I had a surface pro throughout university and I found 3:2 to be perfect for productivity. Also it's nice to be able to see more code if you're into that.

Why don't you like that they are American?

I guess that depends on font scaling but if there is code that long there is usually something wrong with it :D

I like to have views side by side but the 3:2 doesn't really help with that either (at least for code on 13")

That usually complicates payment and shipping (at least with smaller companies) plus I don't really like (indirectly) supporting a government that thinks human rights are for citizens only.
