Same for the UK. Most of the lists I found when I was buying a for Mrs Wife are US-centric and don't bother saying so.

On the recommendation of a friend, I eventually bought from :

Mrs Wife is happy with the machine. However, the first thing I had to do was to repartition the SSD and reinstall , because I wanted , which wasn't set up by default. I chose , rather than , and it works well.

I prefer laptops for their rock solid durability, hot-swappable battery, and full compatibility.

What manufacturer do you prefer for your machines?

@kev @junocomputers I have the version, and it is a great wee computer but the power button location is irritating as hell.
However, I love when mac fanboys at work draw breath to make a criticism (because it's not a mac so must be bad), and I just point at the ethernet port. They turn, and leave, with their dongles between their legs...

Anyone have any tips about using a laptop with a sim card onboard?
I'm running at the mo.

After putting it off for a while, I have just bought a new laptop: an apollo. The only one I could find in the UK with the 4G enabled.
V excited to have a working RJ45 and hopefully no more need for 4G dongles...

@mike I went for last time (6yrs ago) and the laptop is great, has been upgraded as much as poss and tech support is brilliant. Unfortunately, import taxes into the UK were very expensive. £130 tax on a £700 laptop! Ouchie.

Next time I'm thinking .
