I need a laptop that has an i5 or i7 cpu, min 8gb ram, 14 or 15" screen (full hd), 256+ SSD. There are many, many laptops with these specs but the most important aspect is that it has ultra durable hinges because the screen gets opened and closed ALOT every day. The last 2 laptops lasted just over a year before the hinges came apart (right out of warranty period on both). I know there are the ultra rugged offerings that are so bulky it looks like it could be run over by a car or dropped from 30 feet and be fine. This still needs to look and feel like a regular modern laptop. Price range is around $1000-$1200 ish. Any suggestions are appreciated!
Edit: I am in the USA.

Need a laptop with VERY durable hinges please! Suggestions?

 The new Lenovo ThinkPad X240( at Amazon)(Opens in a new window) has the distinction of being the thinnest and lightest X-series laptop to date but it is still MIL-SPEC tough and offers solid Core i5 computing power as well as Lenovo's new Power Bridge battery technology, which gave us over 15 hours of battery life. Like most ThinkPads, the X240 isn't exactly cheap, and its 12.5-inch touch screen is relatively low res, but this well-built ultrabook rocks just the same. 

02 by 8.19 by 0.79 inches (HWD), the X240 is a tad heavier than the Samsung ATIV Book 9 Plus( at Amazon)(Opens in a new window) (3.06 pounds) but still plenty portable enough for long hauls

 Even if you use the six-cell battery you're only looking at around 3.6 pounds. The left side of the magnesium alloy chassis holds VGA and mini DisplayPort video outputs, a power jack, and a USB 3.0 port (which is black, not blue)

Lenovo ThinkPad X240 Review

Not sure if that's specifically something I'll have to look for or if all modern computers will be up to the task. I'm in the US, looking for something <1K.

My Lenovo Thinkpad from nearly a decade ago hasn't been working too well for me lately, sometimes struggling with video calls and buffering videos. Also, it's graphics card isn't good enough to run a few games I'd like to play (Civ 6, Ori & the Blind Forest, Journey). Not sure if that's specifically something I'll have to look for or if all modern computers will be up to the task. I'm in the US, looking for something <1K

DOA!!!

Suppose you had $250 to buy a used laptop for Linux, light productivity, and no gaming.

Option A is an A12 "Bristol Ridge" machine with SSD and full HD screen. It's a business class HP EliteBook so it should be one of the nicer pre-zen APU laptops. 

Option B is a similar (but maybe a year or 2 older) business-class Intel rig with a dual-core at the same price point and comparable features.

Which would you go for?

The $250 question: Bristol Ridge vs. Intel?

 I wanted a good enough laptop that worked fine with OpenBSD, at a good price, and that's what I got.

Good used laptop for the money

 Especially, I am looking for a model that is not brand new, so I can buy it used at a reasonable price. I hope you have a few tips for me which models are worth a closer look for me.

 It can handle some pretty impressive light gaming for something it’s size, and it’s a perfect size for travelling. The keyboard is nice and you get a lot more options with ports than you would with a current day laptop. The battery could be worse, but I have yet to fully experiment with it  As someone who has also owned a lot of computers, this little laptop has more functionality than a newer $800 laptop. If you need a portable, functional and practical computer built to last, this one is definitely for you

Almost perfect refurbishment, great little powerhouse laptop!

Okay, so I'm saving for a laptop and naturally want to run Linux on it. My only problem is that I don't know which brand I should get for the optimal Linux compatibility. I consider all options, and my only constraint is price (up to $750) and as I said, Linux hardware compatibility. Within these constrains, I will list some manifacturers that I'm considering.

- __Dell__
My only problem is that my local computer store does not sell Dell computers. That means shipping costs which impact the value I can get for my money. I could go to another computer store but the first one has the best prices. Linux compatibility should be good if you go with AMD graphics, since they sell laptops with Ubuntu on them.

- __Lenovo__
I was actually going to get an IdeaPad with AMD, since my local computer store has good deals for those at the moment. But then I read about that the newer models are not very upgrade-friendly (as if any laptop nowadays was that). But what pushed me to  consider other options is [this](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenovo#Controversies). I simply don't trust their firmware anymore. However, I have heard that they play well with Linux.

- __ASUS__
I am thinking about ASUS, but most of their lineup is for gamers, and I already have a gaming rig. I could find some "casual" ASUS laptops at my computer store, but they were quite expensive. I also don't know about Linux compatibility, but I suspect it is good like most manifacturers except Microsoft and their sugarbaby HP.

- __Acer__
They mostly sell Chromebooks, which I don't like because they use really slow hardware and rely on software optimization. I have had good experiences with their computers though.

What I'm **not** considering at the moment.

- HP, my experience with their hardware is dreadful, basically M$'s sugarbaby.
- "Pure" Linux laptops like [Purism](https://puri.sm/) and [System76](https://system76.com/), since they are sadly very expensive and shipping costs also limit this option. [Framework](https://frame.work/) only sells to USA and Canada at the moment.

Can you comment with what laptop you're using for Linux? And maybe suggest something different altogether?

Thanks in advance :))
