From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't know what your use-case is, but as I've said before, you should look into these Thinkpad models:
2018:
2019:

All of them have the option of GPU. Make sure to ask for the relevant machine type or part number to validate if they really have what's inside of them - use that information to check on PSREF. Try to get at least a hexacore PC with more than or equal to 16GB of RAM. Avoid soldered RAM if possible - some of the newer ones that I've mentioned have them - because that way, you'll end up having to use RAM in Flex mode.
