    This. If you’ve ever bought a laptop and then realized you couldn’t use the touchpad or thr WiFi because it wasn’t supported in Linux, you’d see the importance of a vendor that explicitly supports linux.

    I’ve also been in charge if buying laptops at work for employee’s. After a few devices wouldn’t work 100% in Linux, we only bought devices that were explicitly made for Linux. It’s not worth the risk of throwing $1k-$3k at a device only to learn later that it’s not usable.
