    I'm seriously considering this laptop for linux based programming and general school work. I was reading a few reviews from when the laptop was first released and saw mention of issues regarding ridiculously high throttling of the CPU when on battery power regardless of power options. Just curious if this is still an issue and / or if there are other issues associated with this model. Ideally looking for an ultra portable i7 and the iris graphics play nicely in linux which is a plus. Oh and one last thing, to disassemble the laptop to upgrade RAM and add a mSATA SSD, how difficult is it?
