Today I learned that there are a number of Linux-based laptop shops in Europe.

@aral there are lots of options nowadays. Some of them based on Clevo (Taiwanese) hardware. Would love to find out the build quality
@syncaddict Yeah, looking at a Clevo N130WU-based system from a European supplier at the moment.
There are some awesome-sounding machines from large companies (e.g., Dell XPS and Lenovo X1 Carbon) but I’d rather support a small European company (and don’t get me started on Lenovo’s backdoor issues, etc.) I’d get a Purism Librem 13 in a heartbeat if it wasn’t for the screen: Coding at 1080p on a 13" screen would destroy my eyes (even more than they already are).
