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.

Why buy Lenovo even there are a bunch of vendors making Linux-first laptops these days? When you buy Lenovo you're supporting Microsoft and a bunch of other shady companies (firmware vendors, etc).
Cause lenovo actually sell their laptop here. I do wish framework would expand out soon but seems quite unlikely for a few more years.
I've gotten both of my thinkpads used, so none of that money went to Lenovo or Microsoft. The laptops that come with Linux are expensive and are rarely available used.
