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.

My recommendation: HP x360 Elitebook 1040 G8. Great machine, hardware support in Debian is great, everything works out of the box.
The Surface might be an interesting device, however do your research very well. https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-i-put-linux-on-a-microsoft-surface-go-in-just-an-hour/ and https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface. There are a few details.
Does screen rotation and fingerprint sensors work?
I have the 13eu-0013ca and the screen angle sensor is not working, so screen rotation is broken on GNOME.
