Psht. I wish! This is wrong and will set people up for failure. There is absolutely hardware that will work well with Linux and hardware that will not.

I tend to run into problems with brand new laptops. Microphones don't work, web cams don't work, fingerprint readers don't work.

I have a Dell Dell Pro next to me with a web cam that doesn't work. Arch, btw.

I also have a Lenovo T14 where everything does work.

The point is you have to RESEARCH before you buy. Otherwise, you're gonna get mad a Linux for not supporting your hardware, instead of being mad at yourself for not researching first.

Hardware that's too old is problematic and hardware that's too new can be problematic.
