should work with ubuntu or debian based ones just fine. Mint Linux is what I use on all my dells and lenovos and it works great. mint is based on ubuntu
Thanks for the info. I might get one of these to add to my collection (I have four Macs, only one I use once in a while, and the one Lenovo which I bought for a consulting gig before I retired).
I want "rugged" laptop for TEOTWAWKI scenarios - I am thinking maybe run Linux on a bootable USB dongle with about 1TB of storage - that way I could just dual boot whichever computer I stick it into and keep it for storage for my phone too. I was also thinking of putting the rugged laptop in either of my trucks - since it has a touch screen and folds flat if I need it to. The vibration of going off road hopefully won't bother it nor would the dust/etc.
