Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I'm going to spend some more time looking at recent models on h-node to see if any of those models are still available in my country. But the availability of models seems to be the biggest problem.
If I can, I will try and get a laptop without Windows on it. But if the computer comes with Windows, I'll see if I can get my money back on it this way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_refund Andrew.
