Hello everyone,

I currently use Linux as my personal operating system and really enjoy it. I’m now looking for a reliable laptop for my business.

I’ll mainly use it for office work, software development, and programming in C++ and Python. I use Debian, so good Linux compatibility is important. Durability and repairability are also high priorities, since I plan to use it as my primary work laptop every day.

Could you recommend any laptops that would be a good fit?

Framework and System76 aren’t options for me because I’m located in Costa Rica, where they aren’t readily available.

Thank you!

    If you don’t use a laptop ut can last for 10 years, and even then I have my doubts. Some laptops are so cheaply made it’s beyond anyone would have imagined, with fringes breaking after one month of opening it with utmost care and displays ungluing from its frame. Why people buy them? Because that’s what was affordable to them. Would they be better off saving some more money to buy better quality? Probably, but necessity and urgency make it economically feasible for this kind of companies to exist, which is regrettable.
