11The HP Envy 13 has been my personal computer for what will be its 4th
12year now. It sports an i5 8250u, 8 gigs of RAM, a 256GB SSD and a
13comfortable 13.3" FHD screen. It's light and portable.

15Arguably, the best part about this device is its compatibility with
16Linux and OpenBSD. Literally everything works out-of-the-box. It shares
17very similar specs with the XPS 13, which might explain it.
