I have no experience with Linux, but I’d like to give it a try. I’m looking at the System76 Meerkat and Thelio with the Pop!_OS option.
I don’t see myself gaming on it because I have a Windows machine for just that. I’d mostly be using it for learning Linux and doing basic things like web surfing and word processing (Libreoffice perhaps).
Any recommendations or advice? Thanks!
If you just want to learn Linux and you have never tried it, maybe before buying an expensive PC just for the sake of having a pre installed Linux distro, you should first try Pop!_OS in a VM. You can as well install Pop_OS! for free on an old PC. If you feel comfortable and want to support System76 then buy one of their machines, but first I’d try it
