From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What kind of problems did you have?

It's like 8 years ago or so, I had the InfinityBook with a skylake processor.

Bluetooth stopped working, send it in then it worked and stopped again, then send it in and it worked and stopped again.

The microphone had broken noises, tested it even under windows to be sure it's a hardware problem.

Discoloration where the hands are left and right of the trackpad.

Plastic bezel around the screen fell off, the tape was bad quality.

Ah I wrote it down last year here:

Probably any of the ThinkPads I had. They were sturdy and just ran everything I put on them. Second place would be the Dell XPS 13, I like it because it is very small and light, but in the one I have now they already had to replace the motherboard after a month and when holding it with one hand it bends and sometimes does a click on the trackpad, but I don't want to send it in a second time because I normally don't use it like that.
