Which laptop did you buy if you don't mind sharing?

Decided on this:

Still had some issues under Linux / NixOS a couple of weeks ago (hardware-wise everything worked; but specific programs, esp. Librewolf, will randomly start eating CPU and battery out of nowhere, with what looks like noops. Haven't investigated further, yet.

sweet, glad to know it generally works with linux. this is available in my part of the world. been shopping around for a personal for-work laptop since my company is stingy. And I plan to move on anyways.

It generally works, yes, but I'd hold off for another month or two in the hopes of the issues being resolved in the kernel
