Hello.

I'm looking for some advice for my OH's Christmas present. He says he would like a tablet, which is great but there are so many and I don't know which to go for.

My OH is a Linux user, he can't stand Windows or Mac. He's a software developer so he'll be quite fussy about what he wants and I want to get him the right one so he'll get use out of it and it won't just be left in the box so to speak.

Does anyone have any ideas or advice on what I should look for or which tablet would be suitable and why?

Thanks!

You could install Linux on some Windows tablets, a good article that takes you through some including the Linx 1010 for various distros is here;

A surface pro running Linux or run via a usb stick?

Install Ubuntu Touch on a Google Nexus 7, 4, or 10 Tablet

You could always buy the Ubuntu linux tablet;
