[HLUG] Linux Laptop

[Steve Horsfield]

I know this is a path well trod, but bear with me. I am trying to buy a
laptop - not for me I hasten to add. The only suitable offering I have
found with linux pre-installed is a 15.6" Lenovo from Linux Emporium in
Coventry for £ 535. Alternatively I could walk into PC World and pick up an
equivalent Dell, for example, for £400 and overwrite the Microsoft OS. Is
there actually no way to realize the advantage of an open source operating
system?
