Resurrecting their commercials from the 90’s now, it would go like this:

Duuuude, you’re gettin’ a Dell.

Oh….. dang.

so honestly, who would you use now? I'd never buy HP, Acer, Lenovo. total crap machines. what other brands of laptop are any good going into 2025/2026? The XPS was always my go-to but now what options are remaining?

I honestly still like Thinkpad. Using a T14s currently.

I love my framework, though it's not as small and battery efficient as my previous xps 13

Dell XPS and Lenovo X1 Carbon are the best laptops for running Linux. I currently have an AMD Framework and, while it's nice that it's repairable, Linux support is crap compared to the XPS and X1. I was actually looking into selling this junk Framework laptop and buying an X1 Carbon.

What don't you like about your Framework? I haven't noticed anything wrong with mine, but haven't had it long.

Something I think is a lot more interesting than them changing names of product lines is that almost all Dells ship with an OEM version of windows which reaches EoL faster, like 5 years sooner, and is more expensive to get a replacement disk image.

I had a tower about 10 years ago that I converted into a dinky little Linux Server, it worked really well all things considered.

Now kill Dell entirely.
