I have no experience with Linux, but I’d like to give it a try. I’m looking at the System76 Meerkat and Thelio with the Pop!_OS option.

I don’t see myself gaming on it because I have a Windows machine for just that. I’d mostly be using it for learning Linux and doing basic things like web surfing and word processing (Libreoffice perhaps).

Any recommendations or advice? Thanks!

    Definitely try pop on another computer for like a week or so before making a big purchase, it may not be for you after all, though from what you said on your usage, you will very likely have a good experience, you can never be too sure!

    Look up how to dual boot popOS and Windows, there should be plenty of guides out there on YouTube or in text form
