The laptop I got is no good with Linux.  I put it on and sometimes it boots
but usually not. The USB port I can boot from sometimes is one port and
other times another. I got $300-350 to play with. Which laptop can I put
linux and kodi on? WOuld making this Lenovo Thinkpad 100% linux be the best
bet?
