I made a promise that my next laptop would be a Linux one, but they're so expensive and I'm fucking broke. I would ask my Dad for help, but I know that he is a brand-whore for the big brands like HP and Dell and won't trust the smaller companies like System76 or ThinkPenguin.

@xianc78 you'll just have to install Linux on a normal laptop like an prole

@PurpCat @xianc78
HP had this "designed for linux" model, made in cooperation with System76: https://hpdevone.com/
It looks decent IMO. According to the website it's sold out, but maybe you can still find it at a discount somewhere.

@m0xEE @xianc78 if windows tax is your concern you can buy a HP business model without windows (they still sell this)

@PurpCat @m0xEE I can't believe that FreeDOS is an option.
