My current laptop is 6 years old, doesn’t close properly, and the manufacturer has left the laptop space. I don’t know if I’ll be back in some-controversy for several years and don’t know if I’ll ever be able to order a proper linux laptop from them to amerikkka.

The only thing holding me back is the internationalization. I know they’re a big company capable of internationalization, but is there a chance it’s not really polished/complete on laptops they’re currently only selling in some-controversy? Will I be a few menus deep suddenly totally illiterate to what’s on my screen?

I’m a touch typer and not worried about the labels on the physical keys and buttons, just the software.

Thanks
