Does it run Linux? Specifically Fedora.

You would have to out it on it manually, but yes it should. I don't know for sure, since I haven't reset it with Fedora, but Ubuntu runs fine on my very similliar laptop. There is always a few bugs, like mine, currently, there is something wrong with the RAM, but it still works on Windows 8.1. So, since Linux has it's glitches, Dual-Boot it, so that you have a back up OS

I don't know for sure whether it would work for Linux. Since it works for Mac and Mac OS Is basically Linux I would guess that it probably does.

Yes, if you go to the product page from SuperMicro, they list several linux OS. Quote "supported operating systems: RedHat Enterprise, Fedora 9, SuSE and CentOS"

Yes. I wouldnt know if it rund on linux but if you want to see stats from your training on your training peaks page you would have to find a way to run a wimdows os within your linux. Email angel.matos@rdsgi.com for a way to do this. Its a great watch and it has been with me for two years now.

Wishy-washy answer: it should... Don't know anyone who uses Linux so can't verify.

I'm sorry to ask a question on your question but did you every purchase the device and try it on Linux? I was also curious.

I Run Fedora 21 through this interface and USB3 with no issues. It's basically as fast as an internal drive.

If you were really set on running windows, and you were a master of computers and programming, then yes. For most people, no. The device runs Chrome OS, which works for most daily browsing and work tasks. If you need something specific and there is no app support for it, it is fairly easy to run linux on the device.Linux is pretty similar to windows in feel and program support.

You can install an OS onto it. I have it running Linux in a dual boot configuration right now

It has run flawlessly for the past year. I run Linux on a Raid 0 array. I have 2 gig of ram. Netflix, and videos are great even with standard video. Four gig, and a souped up video card would be marvelous. Master Rod

Not sure I do not run win 8. It should, mines runs fine in Linux environment.

The stripped down Linux it ships with will let it boot but is not otherwise useful. I installed Fedora 20 desktop with the help of a USB connected DVD drive. I use it daily and am very pleased with it. I think that it is an outstanding value. I do use a wireless trackball to make up for the integrated mousepad which is not outstanding.

Officially only Win/Mac OSs are supported. It doesn't come with a Linux driver and Genius website doesn't provide one. However, http:// goo.gl/7FK

I can't speak for Linux platforms, I've never tried. I can speak for everyday uses. I use it at the office everyday.

I don't use Linux, but it is listed as being workable for Windows, Mac, or Linux.

I am using it on XP, but not sure about Linux. I should as it is a physical switch and not software driven.
