Question

laptops

Hello, advise a laptop for linux system.
The laptop has exactly one task - running virtual machines (virtualbox)
Of the main requirements - installing debian and drivers without problems and dances.
Budget ±200tr
Not "gaming" solutions.
I'm looking for a replacement for mb pro, it also disappears.

Considered librem from purism. But there is too long delivery.

In the vast majority of cases, problems with drivers in linux for laptops are problems with the touchpad (rarely, more precisely, not out of the box, but solvable), bluetooth / wifi (also not often, but sometimes it’s not even solvable) and with the video card (this is a pain and suffering in linux, because the manufacturers do not need it, but inserting sticks to free alternatives to windows is welcome).
If gpu acceleration is not required, then in the vast majority of cases there are no problems, intel, nvidia, amd, especially not the oldest video cards, work fine in linux, and sometimes even without problems and 3d acceleration
But most importantly, cheap models often have problems with drivers, I guess the legs grow from manufacturers who want to rank objectively the same pieces of iron in different markets and price ranges (I remember even id was replaced for compatible hardware, for example, a sound card, only so that the standard drivers do not work)
Your budget is quite high for a non-gaming laptop, so feel free to take anything, you can google the model before buying, add linux 'does not work' and scroll through what exactly
ps There are virtual machines in the task, but it is not said what exactly will be launched there, people immediately assume hardcore with forwarding video cards inside, but is it necessary? In fact, virtual machines will work on almost any modern hardware (I have no idea which modern processors may not support hardware virtualization), so look further for a large amount of RAM and a fast and large ssd drive
