While many of us have successfully installed and used Linux desktop on
Lenovo Thinkpads and other models; it is great to see mainstream
hardware vendors *recognize* Linux desktop as an alternative to the
incumbent OS and support it officially!

IIRC, Dell has been shipping Ubuntu on the XPS line (not dual boot)
for quite a few years now.
And in the 2020 offering, the Linux version comes with better hardware.

HP needs to step up to the plate!
