Hello GNU/Linux users and fans!
I am basically a "NEW GUY" when it comes to linux in general and I would like if possible to ask you, the more experieced ones, for a little help.
Even though I used Ubuntu 12.04 for about half a year as an everyday Desktop OS (which was great for about everything I needed) and experienced a little of Linux Puppy on the same Desktop using it as a data recovery OS, I would like to move to the Laptop side of OS-es.
I have done a bit of research and I personally find the ideal which Linux aims for as a wonderful and bright. The stability: I love it. At least what I experienced with Ubuntu: I managed to crash it about 2 times in 6 months and that was just because I tried to see how much it can handle! ...normally I somehow manage to crash any Windows OS I lay my hands on at least twice a week without intending to do so.
I am looking forward to BUYING A LAPTOP that supports Ubuntu and other Linux based OS-es without too much trouble as I like to try various things and I would love to learn as much as possible about it. It doesn't have to be with "rocket-science" hardware, but I am aiming for a bit of performance and I hope to use it for at least a couple of years. I still don't know what to opt from: Intel or AMD processor? Is there a brand I shall look for?
I know there are some differences between the markets, so just in case you find it useful I am in Europe.
Anything you find useful and care enough to share with me or others, I'd be grateful!
Thanks in advance for any suggestion
