I’m looking for a laptop that is very compact in size, and relatively cheap. The more internal storage the better. A detachable keyboard and touchscreen would be nice too but aren’t essential.

I plan to install Linux mint on it and just use it for light tasks and file management, so it doesn’t need to be too powerful.

    My Microsoft surface pro 3 would work perfectly for you :) I would just get a newer model. I’m running fedora gnome and everything including touch works

      The SP3 was particurarly stable with mainline linux (not needing surface-linux), especially regarding standby. Sadly not a repeatable experience with the more recent ones, but I’d love to be proven wrong (:
