Isn't the Qualcomm 845 also the SoC in some of the new WARM laptops?
I asked one person that had an older one (ASUS NovaGo - Qualcomm 835), and apparently you can actually disable secure boot on that thing and boot from USB.
In other words, it might _actually_ act like a normal laptop.
I'd love to have something that is actually a real honest-to-goodness ARM laptop finally. Are we getting at all close to that?
