From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Thanks - that's helpful. What's your go-to for a linux laptop that has the build quality of Apple?
ThinkPad - of course (especially T and P series).
I'm using a surface laptop studio with the linux-surface kernel (NixOS, btw :p).
It's actually quite repairable compared to some other offerings and are generally available used on ebay. I won a $610 bid for mine with an i7, 32gb RAM and a 3050ti. I think all the models have the same 120hz 3:2 screen too. I'm incredibly pleased with it.
I don't really have a recommendation at the moment, currently using a lenovo 2 in 1 and I've had a good experience with running Linux on it. The build quality is also quite good, such as being a full metal shell.
