I need a new laptop and I don’t really know what to do.
Here’s my problem: I’ve had a MacBook Pro since 2009. I’m happy with it, I like MacOS, it’s the only Apple product I actually own. It is getting old, slow, etc and I think after 7 years it is time for a new laptop. I have been waiting months for the new MacBook Pro line up and now it has been released I am not that impressed. Especially with the £500+ price increase. BUT, I like Mac OS X, the build and style of the MacBook.
So, what alternatives could I go for? I’ve been looking at ‘Ultrabooks’, or thin laptops as they are. If I get a non-mac laptop I will be installing some kind of Linux distro. I’ve looked online at Dell’s XPS range, looks nice. The main issue I see is having a laptop that is fully compatible with Linux.
Does anyone have any other recommendations? Any particular laptops/brands work well with Linux?
Thanks
