I have a framework laptop that I put together, really repairable so if something explodes the whole thing doesn't become ewaste. But only do this if your use case requires somewhat modern hardware there's a ton of like 10 dollar laptops on sale on ebay that are 10 years old and good for only web browsing or remote desktop and will run fine with an install of fedora atomic or whatever
And yeah just put Linux on your current laptop it'll run like a dream. Personally Ive got like 10 laptops around my place from family that didn't want them and they all run great with fedora atomic. I prefer fedora atomic for these because updates don't break if I don't mess with them for a long time
