have a look at https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/, they sell linux only laptops.
No, I think Carlos should shop at https://slimbook.es/ :-)
As long as they sell to Spain, I'm game :-)
I'd suppose Spanish company ships into Spain. ;-)
The second link is in Spanish, so that condition is fulfilled. The first one I don't know. But I'm not buying anytime soon. Unless I get into money (not likely) or my current laptop dies (I hope id doesn't).
When buying Dell Latitude some years ago, I hope it'd now be in better state than it is... :-/ Am I only one thinking that quality of ThnkPads, Lattitudes, ProBooks etc. is decreasing? Then If I'd have to go for new notebook soon (I hope I don't), I'd go for Slimbook (light, perfect design) or Tuxedo (for me slightly better HW, numerical keyboard), Ryzen, of course. ;)
I have two laptops. One is a Compaq I bought on 2009 or so. It is heavy and not powerful. I intentionally do not buy powerful laptops to reduce the cost. No powerful graphics either, just Intel, for the same reason and to increase battery life. I replaced the battery once, so it is still working. The other I bought on 2018, is a tiny thing quite suitable for travelling (I selected it specifically for that purpose). Same criteria, not powerful, Intel graphics. A Lenovo. On both I replaced the hard disk with an SSD. Recent caveat: they both work badly with meet (jitsi). CPU load goes full, not possible to meet with three people, they stutter. Recently, I bought a a laptop for a friend and did the initial preparation. She is not a gamer, so again I selected Intel graphics. Price bracket under 1000€, I don't remember the exact price now. It is much more powerful than mine, but it is a sprinter: it can go full CPU power for a short time only, otherwise it overheats and throttles down. Not a problem. A Lenovo again, with Windows (I installed Linux as well in a small partition, just in case). The owner initially was moaning that it was "different" from her old laptop. But one day that old machine refused to boot, so she had no recourse but use the new one, and brought me the old one to repair. Turned out that after three days she was so happy with the new laptop that the old one is just catching dust unused in a corner of my house, she didn't come back for it :-D So I'm very happy she is happy with my choices of laptop O:-) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
