Thank you very much, @awokd, I appreciate the links and the help! My machine is totally new. Nothing has been installed on it, whatsoever. I'm just trying to get the Qubes on there and to go from there. I'll indeed follow your advice.
I wanted to go with a Lenova from 2008 or prior, a freedom fighting association out of the UK puts them together and sells them and claims that they are pretty much the freest thing you can get. But with how slow they likely are I thought I'd rather get something a little more modern. The new TPM chips are pretty cool too, will see where that goes. How do you like yours? Did you do it all yourself or get it as is? Was it hard to get to its current state where you feel like you are literally in complete control of everything? Pretty sure Purism is the same but I could be wrong about something. I'm just getting into all this really.
