"content": "Let me introduce you to aceBSD! Yesterday, while I was out grocery shopping, I saw a special offer on a final unit, and I had already been thinking for a while about getting a mid-range laptop to take with me to conferences, on trips, etc. Something small, practical, with an HDMI port, and capable of running at least one of the BSDs decently. After some careful thought, I decided to go for it today.\n\nIt's an Acer Swift Go 14 - with an Intel i5, 16 GB of RAM, and a 512 GB NVMe SSD. What I really like is that it’s compact and has a high-definition OLED screen, a good keyboard, and for the rest... we’ll see. I just used Clonezilla to make a backup of the preinstalled Windows (I didn’t even boot into it...) and I’m now installing OpenBSD. I had to disable VMD (from a hidden BIOS menu) because otherwise the installer wouldn’t detect the NVMe. It also seems to detect the Wi-Fi, but I’m proceeding with a USB-C Ethernet adapter just to be safe.\n\nI got it at a good price, so this could be the ideal solution. Fingers crossed, and… we’ll see!\n\nI'll keep posting about this adventure, with the hashtag #aceBSD\n\n#RunBSD #OpenBSD #aceBSD #NewLaptop\n\nhttps://media.bsd.cafe/bsdmmedia01/media_attachments/files/114/445/179/786/555/107/original/2e78d078bcc8dc91.jpeg",
