Dell. For years, for thousands of laptops at my company. Mostly due to the "Next Business Day Onsite Service". I won't argue that laptops are not all built the same across all brands, but what's make the difference for me, as a corporate customer, is the associated service/warranty. Knowing that I or my colleagues will have their laptop repaired or replaced within 24h is (almost) priceless. We loose more money when a teammate can't work during a day than purchasing the extended warranty. Also, I am a european customer, so my experience may differ with the services offer in US or Canada.

Framework for the last month or so. Old Thinkpad T460s is still around. Both with NixOS. Framework works fine. On the Thinkpad, fingerprint reader doesn’t work and LTE modem has issues (ModemManager crashes in a loop; not sure what the issue is, and never needed it enough to investigate).
