If you want something a bit more like a Macbook Pro, consider the HP Zbook G1A. It's basically built like a Macbook in terms of case and screen quality, but it's based on an AMD Strix Halo chipset - mine is an AI Max Pro+ 395. The chip design is somewhat similar to Apple Silicon in that it's one big chip with unified memory - you can get them with up to 128GB of unified ram - that thing is a beast for running local LLMs. Since HP also sells them with Ubuntu preinstalled, Linux support is quite good, though it requires some bleeding edge packages for everything to be supported. In my case, I have suspend and hibernate working perfectly, fingerprint reader, webcam, etc all work. | ||

> I have suspend and hibernate working perfectly In Linux? Seriously? How much tweaking did that require? Do you dare to throw the laptop into a backpack in sleep mode instead of shutting it down first? | ||
