Thanks, ~rrraksamam. As the original patron who asked for computer advice didn't specify what they planned to do with said device, I tried to keep my reply brief and simply pointed them at a few sites that offered computers with pre-installed libre GNU/Linux distros. For me, software freedom is a top priority, and thus I think supporting small companies that promote hardware configurations that can run fully free software is the right way to go for many folks (excluding techies who are happy to swap out hardware components after the fact to get libre graphics and wifi cards). That being said, I appreciate the time you took to lay out a detailed comparison of the laptops currently sold on those sites. Hopefully that will help not only the original patron who asked but also anyone else here at the pub who is curious about this same question. Well done!
