Looking to upgrade from an old Latitude, curious as to what mobile hardware you folks use for writing your open source projects?

I'm curious why you want an intel cpu over an amd one

In my experience Intel graphics have better compatibility with Linux-libre. I'm unsure about Linux-libre on AMD; according to at least one report it requires firmware blobs, which I'd rather avoid.

(I'm aware that firmware blobs are unavoidable with modern-ish hardware but I'd prefer to avoid as many of them as possible)
