My 2c from buying Linux laptops. I had an 11th gen System 76 Lemur Pro that was pretty great. (20 - 30 hour battery life, no joke...) Well... until it started failing. I had to send it it multiple times to be repaired under warranty. Their service and support was the worst I've ever experienced, and the final time it took 6 weeks to get it fixed. Then it promptly died again just out of warranty. :( I replaced it with an AMD Framework as a very early adopter in batch 1. It's been great so far other than a couple Mesa related bugs that came up, but nothing so bad as to make me regret it. It's not as polished as an Apple product, but has a similar price. That's maybe the worst thing I can say about it.
