    <p>I bought a Purism 14 back in 2019. Some build problems (and a
      friend who bought a Purism had the same) but the customer service
      was excellent, and it's been a huge step up from the dual-booted
      Dell XPS15 I was using before (which never seemed entirely happy
      running Linux).<br>
