Dell M3800 15" UHD 1TB SSD Workstation

Does this model have a Thunderbolt port?

Doesn’t look like it. From the specs:

I/O Ports:
HDMI: 1
Mini DisplayPort: 1
USB 3.0: 3
USB 2.0: 1
Combo Headphone/Mic Jack: 1

has anyone tried to run Linux on this beast? (double points or Ubuntu)

is it important with USB 3.0? I thought they ran about the same. We picked this beast up. I’m excited though it won’t be my computer.
