Business dual-boot laptop

The Lenovo ThinkPad L14 Gen 2 ships new with Windows 10 Pro and Linux Mint 20 configured for dual-boot selection at startup. An 11th Gen Intel Core i7-1165G7 processor with four cores and a 4.7 GHz maximum turbo frequency drives the system. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4 memory and a 500GB PCIe SSD provide capacity for multi-tasking workloads. The 14.0-inch Full HD IPS panel resolves at 1920x1080.

Connectivity and chassis

A Thunderbolt 4 Type-C port, two USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A ports, two USB 3.2 Type-C Gen1 ports, HDMI, Ethernet RJ-45 and a microSD reader cover peripheral and display needs. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 handle wireless links. The 3.5 lb black chassis measures 13.03 x 9.25 x 0.75 inches and houses a 45 WHr three-cell battery fed by a 65W supply. A 720p webcam sits above the non-touch screen.

Upgrade context

The dual-boot arrangement replaces a single-OS deployments for developers or administrators who need both Windows and Linux environments without virtualization overhead. The 32GB DDR4 configuration upgrades typical 8GB or 16GB factory fits, removing the memory ceiling for container or compile workloads. Buyers who require a discrete GPU, a larger display or a higher-capacity battery should evaluate other models.

Questions about this item

What speed does the Thunderbolt 4 port on this L14 Gen 2 deliver?

The Thunderbolt 4 port on this model is a USB Type-C connection; the supplier data does not quote a throughput figure.

What are the chassis dimensions for this 14.0 inch ThinkPad?

The laptop measures 13.03 in wide, 9.25 in deep and 0.75 in high, weighing 3.5 lb.

How is the dual-boot environment set up on this unit, and what is the common mistake?

Windows 10 Pro and Linux Mint 20 are pre-installed on the 500 GB PCIe SSD; you choose one at the boot menu. The mistake is trying to run both at once — a reboot is required to switch.
