There exist a few linux hardware vendors (laptops, pcs, phones) out there. Is the community using them?

See https://linuxpreloaded.com/ for vendors

I'll get one of those when I have the money for a high-end laptop.

Are there no linux shops in your geographical area that sell low to mid range laptops?

Is this a thing anywhere?

Ordered the starlite a couple of weeks ago, can't wait to test it out! delivery times are quite long, so gotta hold my breath

I'm curious about it, but it's pricey! It's the framework alternative, isn't it?

The lite is a tablet, which might be perfect for me, as I often work on remote machines anyway. Framework seemed pricier to me with some nice extras... but I didn't really get well acquainted. If it doesn't pan out I'd look into framework.
