And you failed to answer the countersign, so you are probably a spy.
But this has nothing to do with Linux. Did you have a comment about
Linux? (This is a newsgroup about Linux.)

Linux 6.15-rc2 compiled with no errors, but some warnings:
$ grep -i warning nohup.out | wc -l 9
(You have been warned.)

Okaaaay...so have you ever tried Linux? A great distro is Linux Mint:
https://linuxmint.com/download.php
You can download it, write it to a USB stick, and boot the stick to try
it out. If you like it, you can install it on your internal storage.
It even has a tool to shrink your Windows partition to make room
for Linux.
OR -- since Linux is now part of Windows, you can just use the so-called
"Windows Subsystem for Linux", and run Linux on Windows!

Good luck, and happy Linuxing.
Other than ThinkPenguin, Tuxedo and System76 through an online purchase, where will you find a machine that comes with Linux on it?

It's online too. I doubt you'll see a Linux computer at Best Buy, if
that's what you mean, but I seldom go there and am not looking for a
computer when I do.
Panasonic certified their Toughbooks with RedHat and you probably can
find a SKU with Linux. Good luck with that. Navigating their site is something else. I found that out when a site asked if they could use Toughbooks. 'Which freaking Toughbook? Panasonic calls almost
everything a Toughbook.'

For their decision to give customers a choice to install Linux on the
laptop at purchase, I'll have to consider Dell the next time around. Nevertheless, with Linux, I will be able to go quite a while on my other machine without having to buy another. I'm sure that it will eventually
not be good enough to play the latest 3D games, but I'm a humongous fan
of 2D platformers anyway.
