Hey everyone! I'm in a bit of a rush to find a decent laptop and I just can't seem to locate anything good in my area today. My budget is around $2000, and I was initially looking for a ThinkPad, but they're all out of stock at the moment. I stumbled across the Acer SF16-51-94KH, and it seems to have a solid deal with an ultra 9 CPU, which I haven't seen in that price range before. I'm curious if anyone has experience with this laptop, especially regarding running Linux on it. Is it a good choice? Any feedback or tips would be really appreciated!

Sorry for spamming, but I need karma to post here. Hopefully, you find a great laptop soon!
If you’re considering Linux, I heard there are brands that sell custom laptops pre-installed with Manjaro in Europe. Also, the Toshiba Satellite series might be worth checking out!
Always remember to mention your Linux distro, hardware specs, and any error messages you might encounter when asking for tech help! It'll make it easier for people to assist you!
What do you need the laptop for? Personally, I don't rush high-end purchases, especially if they're over $1500. New models can have some bugs or compatibility issues to sort out. Have you thought about getting a used laptop? Linux can run pretty well on older models if they have enough RAM. Just a thought—maybe give Google a shot with something like 'SF16-51-94KH acer swift linux support' to gather more info.
If I had a $2000 budget, I'd be hesitant about going for an Acer. Just a heads up!
