vrtxd<p>After months of procrastinating on it, I finally clean installed Windows 11 and Debian 12 (Linux) on my personal laptop. I intend to use Debian by default as my daily OS and dual boot to Windows if needed. If you want a clean install of W11, check out Windows Utility (Chris Titus Tech) and its MicroWin functionality. Oh and Ventoy is awesome: a single flash drive with all the .iso installers you need, readily bootable.</p><p><a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/DualBoot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DualBoot</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Windows11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows11</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Debian</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/GNU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GNU</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/WinUtil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WinUtil</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/MicroWin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MicroWin</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Ventoy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ventoy</span></a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a></p>

Aus Gründen suche ich für mich einen neuen Laptop. Und dieses Mal tatsächlich einen für Dualboot mit Windows/Linux, da ich ungefähr alle zwei Monate für genau eine Windowsapplikation dieses Microsoft Dingens benötige. Ja, ja ich weiß und nein, es gibt leider keine Alternative unter Linux und mit Wine habe ich es auch schon erfolglos getestet. 😬</p><p>Also gesucht wird ein Laptop, der folgende Ansprüche erfüllt:</p><p>Linux:<br>- Laufzeit auf mehrere Jahre ausgelegt, da ich meine Laptops so lange wie möglich nutze<br>- Genutzte Software: Browser, Mail und LibreOffice<br>- <b>Benutzung einer USB-C Dockingstation von Lenovo</b> für den Betrieb von zwei Monitoren<br>- Display 14 Zoll (oder größer, je nach Preis)<br>- Lange Akkulaufzeit<br>- Kein "Geficke" beim Installieren von div. Linux Distributionen</p><p>Windows:<br>- Billigste Windows-Lizenz, die möglich ist.</p><p>Keine Ahnung, worauf man heute bei einem Kauf eines Laptops für <b>Privat</b> achten sollte? Es muss keine Kiste mit dem neuesten Scheiß sein, sollte aber auch keine billigste Hardware sein, die nach drei Jahren nicht mehr zu nutzen ist.</p><p>Deswegen brauche ich die Unterstützung der Weltbesten <a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=Fedinauten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fedinauten</span></a> ever.<br>Welche Laptops (Hersteller/Modell) sind zu empfehlen?<br>Welche Onlineshops sind empfehlenswert?</p><p>Gerne darf diese Frage geteilt werden. 😉</p><p><a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=Laptop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Laptop</span></a> <a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=Hardware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hardware</span></a> <a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=Dualboot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dualboot</span></a> <a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AskFedi</span></a> <a href="https://anonsys.net/search?tag=FragDasFediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FragDasFediverse</span></a> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/askfedi_de" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>askfedi_de</span></a></span></p>
