  • Any recommendations for a laptop that will mainly be used for internet access?

    I work from home so have a work issued dell laptop, docking station, screen and keyboard etc, and the wife has a nice xps I used to use from time to time, but now she has set up her own business she pretty much has the personal laptop 90% of the time, so I'm thinking about getting something cheap for myself.

    I was thinking chromebook but the tinfoil hat in me doesn't like how much visibility google has on my life, so would like something I could run ubuntu on, and I've read it's not that straight forward on a chromebook.

    Would also be nice to get something that works with my dell dock for monitors, power and wired internet.

    What do the experts of lfgss recommend? Something used? I'd quite like to be able to just walk into a shop and pick something up.

    have you considered just getting a dell laptop?

  • I have, but I guess what I am wondering is if a standard laptop is the best option, or would I be better off with a chromebook, or even a tablet.

    Can you get a tablet with a usb-c that works for power and display with a dell dock?
