I agree. For the spec though, Dell aren’t any better value for money than laptops from the smaller ‘for linux’ sellers. Which is pretty cool. Of course it’s much easier to find used Dell laptops though.

I think it depends on your budget and where you live. North America has System76, UK has Starlabs, Germany has Tuxedo, Netherlands has laptopswithlinux and Spain has Slimbook. I think Starlabs are the only ones who do a tablet. Has your wife tried using an external graphics tablet?

Thanks! Looks like a really interesting app as well.

Do you know if hugo blogs can federate?

Is Coreboot not fully open source?

Yeah, I’m still getting updates on my 2017 Dell Latitude!

I am honoured.

If either of my parents could use a computer it would run linux.

But then I have to do all of their online tasks anyway, so technically they are using linux.

Peachy. Sounds like there’s nothing to worry about then (from a user POV).
