    I'm particularly interested in using linux on this laptop. I don't want to use Windows, what's like using linux on this laptop ? Are there problem with overheating? Can i use Linux on this laptop for video editing with programs like kdenlive? Can I use Linux for screencast with programs like kazam? The temperatures are under control? I won't play games on this laptop.

    anyone tried using linux in this machine. I'm comparing pa950ep6, pa71ep6-g and tongfang gk5cn6z. I'm trying to find the machine that supports Linux better.
