After a two week survey period, Phoronix has published the results from their inaugural Linux Laptop Survey. There were 30,171 responses and while there may be some additional follow-up articles in the days/weeks ahead, the initial review has been published. One goal of the survey was to gather feedback about the current state of GNU/Linux hardware compatibility. Overall the situation is better than it was even a few years ago, but there are still many problems here and there. The situation is summed up in two pages, complete with diagrams, over at Phoronix.

    Further to the above; there are no laptops available in NZ with "no-OS" as an option.

    So I ordered a System 76 Oryx Pro earlier this year. Great machine and support; but had to import it and pay extra taxes and expensive shipping....
