Which laptop and distro would you recommend for a Linux newb (someone who has never used Linux)? Preferably hardware with decent battery life and isn’t horribly slow.

    I’m on my second battery, this has been my main personal computer (gaming aside) for over ten years. Maybe it deserves one more extension on life… I’ll think about it!

        Everything is telling me that this is obviously fake and there’s no way it could exist, but there’s a small part of me saying “there’s someone out there that would do this…” Like a 25 pin serial to USB adapter.
