This is a hardware question.
Which brand and model(s) of laptop have people successfully installed
devuan onto?
How difficult was it?

Thank You In Advance.

The long story; I finally have a need to purchase my own personal
laptop and have spent the last few days searching for such a beastie
that I can order.

I have a strong preference to not pay the Microsoft Tax and not waste
my money on bits for which there are no linux drivers. Obviously
running Devuan is preferable.

Unfortunately, there appears to be no local vendor of Linux only
laptops around any more. The only one in the coutry that I could
located actually buys Win OS laptops and co-installs Linux and I'd
prefer to avoid the future hassles that will cause(leopard-spots).

Note, also having great difficulty finding out how to order such a
beastie from the major global brands.
