Hi,

to be honest, "best hardware" in general sounds (for me kinda) overpowered
and with a recommandation. I would rather prefer "hardware which works
(tested) with Open Source". And if you want, replace Open Source with
Fedora (to be branded again) :-)

Just my five cents

all the best

I think this concept is on the right track.  It would make a lot more
sense to me to do the following:

* Develop a set procedure by which someone could observe and rate a
  laptop, including all relevant hardware.

* Use an article template to show how the laptop performed, and
  restrict publication to those laptops that perform well.  There's no
  need to write articles about hardware that doesn't work well, it's
  just negative noise.

There is a reason certification efforts cost real money and
resources.  I don't think we want to get the Magazine into that
business.
