If you have the money and it interests you, Framework (and yes, they do linux ~ https://frame.work/linux ) Past that, spend the money on an enterprise level laptop if you're going to buy one. I've only bought 2 laptops in the past ~12 years, an HP Elitebook and a Lenovo P51 ~ both were WAY overkill when I bought them, and the HP outlasted 3 laptops for my wife (consumer grade shit) while outperforming all of them. I found the same to be true when I was working IT, any dept. that tried to "save" money on lower cost/comsumer level computers suffered more component turn-over and ultimately more money spent. Anyway, it finally just couldn't keep up with my demands as I got more into photo and video editing. Enterprise level stuff is also more designed with fixability in mind, you can actually upgrade and/or replace common parts without much fuss to keep the machines going. Anyway, my Lenovo p51 is very happy with Manjaro/linux. Everything works as it should and it's more or less an invisible OS if you want it to be.
