    <p>Not sure whether I should be top-posting this or not. Anyway, like
      John Winters I've found Lenovo laptops very useful for running
      Linux over the last few years. Mostly Thinkpads.</p>

    was my last purchase in late 2024. I've been very happy with it. I
    wiped the drive and stuck Debian 12 on it.<br>
