I’m thinking of getting a laptop to run Linux on. I’ve heard Lenovo is generally well-supported (particularly models that come with Linux pre-installed).

Is there any particular hardware I should watch out for / avoid, and / or prefer? Any other brands / models people would particularly recommend?

    You can check out https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/. Their computers are designed with Linux in mind and come pre-loaded on Linux. Plus they’re all modular, so you can actually take parts out and replace them if you want.

      Tuxedo computers are good but they are not really designed by Tuxedo. They are manufactured by one of those Chinese laptop OEMs.

        That’s good to know! My desktop is a custom build, but I’ve seen Tuxedo around so it seemed like a decent company to recommend.
