Greetings,

My Windows 10 laptop died pretty close to its fifth birthday, so I'm planning on replacing it with a Linux laptop. I've used it for conference calls (hosting the Toronto Perlmongers meeings), and some light Libre Office work, so I need something better than a Bare Bones laptop, but not as wicked as a big fat gamer's rig.

Refurbished is OK, and pre-loaded with Linux is also fine. Budget is perhaps $600-$800.
