What would you recommend for a Linux laptop. Will multiboot with Windows 11.

Both with i5 10th gen. T490 with 24gb ram and 5410 with 16gb ram.

$200 USD for the dell and $260 USD for the Lenovo.

Just want to do basic office/web stuff. Only gaming would be Minecraft. looking for a quiet laptop with good thermals.

I was messing with some 5410s at work recently. Seemed decently built, but the trackpoints are pretty bad

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.
