Don’t recommend HP laptops for Linux

Apparently they randomly reboot themselves, at least the newer AMD ones do. Wasn’t cheap either.

Is it worth enough to buy a refurbished HP Chromebook? I can put open source bios on it. eGPU won’t work with it, but oh well.

Maybe it’s worth enough to get a compatible Chromebook with more RAM. Get rid of the eGPU too.

Might be related to amdgpu. Apparently Linux hasn’t fixed the problem yet, whatever it is. Or the laptop is defective.
