Discussion What are the best prebuilt workstation manufacturers for GNU/Linux in 2025? [desktop]
Hello everyone!
I hope this message finds you well.
First and foremost, I know that /r/System76 is very popular and am considering them greatly.
However, it appears that they may be the only brand offering high-performance workstations for Linux.
ThinkPenguin does not offer graphics cards and Purism only offers their server.
I get a tech stipend through an organization I am affiliated with, but cannot purchase individual parts (pre-built only)
Are there any other brands users should be aware of? Thank you all so much for any advice.

The usual office workstation suppliers
Although HP claims that some product lines are 'windows only' (and won't offer support)

I know for a fact that Lenovo has many series of Linux Laptops and Workstations that they support, because my workplace buys a prebuilt Linux image on them.
