[plug] Buy Linux laptop

[Gregory Orange]

Hi everyone,
I'm looking to buy a <2kg Linux laptop. This time around, I'd like 99% hardware support, particularly including lid open and close, suspend and resume, because that's the killer feature of my crusty MBP. What are the chances of that with LXDE, or perhaps LXQt now Lubuntu LTS ships with that?

I don't mind using another distro. 1080p preferable. External monitor(s) required. I don't know much about docks, but I suppose that's a good idea.

https://certification.ubuntu.com/desktop looks useful - I could spend a bunch of time sifting through options to see what's available in AU. No surprises that Dell and Lenovo feature there.

Any thoughts? Where to buy?

Thanks,
Greg.
