I was looking into buying a used or refurbished laptop and installing a Linux distro on it. Mostly want to use it for surfing the web, but I am sure it will have a lot of other uses. What are some good sites to buy a laptop? What should I consider as far as the type of hardware goes (Gpu, WiFi, etc)? What would be good distros to consider? I have been working with Linux for a long time, so I would not consider myself a beginner. Thanks for any advice.

    I tried my national, online marketplace, but the quality was lacking. In the end, I went for a refurbished laptop. They are often of good quality, cheaper than new (and sometime equivalent) laptops, and have some extra warranty to boot.
