Which laptop and distro would you recommend for a Linux newb (someone who has never used Linux)? Preferably hardware with decent battery life and isn’t horribly slow.
Update: Walked away with this Dell Inspiron i5 3520 with Best Buy’s black friday deal: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6553026.p
I have a dell latitude e7250 which is really cheap, i run fedora KDE on it without any issue, however the battery doesn’t last more than 2 and a half hours, maybe 3 if you really want to stretch it.
