[10:15] <jfer> Hi. I was looking at purchasing a new laptop. Does anyone have any suggestions on laptops with good Ubuntu compatibly available in Australia?
[10:16]  * blahdeblah always buys Lenovo ThinkPad
[10:16] <blahdeblah> X series
[10:16] <blahdeblah> I have an X230 at the moment
[10:16] <blahdeblah> Everything works basically out of the box on any modern distro
[10:17] <blahdeblah> I've always found that Intel GPU, NICs, & wifi cards are very well supported, but I've heard that AMD/ATI have made good strides recently.
[10:17] <jfer> I was thinking of getting the Inspiron 17 7000
[10:19] <jfer> or the Dell Inspiron Oak 15 Main HS 5537 to be precise.
[10:22] <blahdeblah> I had a Dell Latitude D830 before my ThinkPads - it worked out of the box as well
[10:22] <blahdeblah> Not sure about the Inspirons
[10:22] <blahdeblah> If it's Intel & it isn't too new, I'd bet on it working pretty well
[10:23] <blahdeblah> Not sure about the NVIDIA/ATI GPUs, though
[10:30] <jfer> Hmm. It would seem that there are potential issues with the Hybrid graphics
[10:53] <blahdeblah> jfer: My wife has an HP Envy 14 with hybrid graphics and it sucked so badly on Linux that she gave up and went back to Windows
