The only issue I see with that one is the display is 1600x900. I personally look for 1080p on 17". Costco has an HP 17" (1080P) that just went on sale this week for $499 (https://www.costco.com/hp-17.3%22-laptop---13th-intel-core-i5-1335u---1080p---windows-11.product.4000138583.html)--if you are near a costco have a membership or know someone who does. I bought one last week. It has 512G nvme + 12G ram (8g+4g). Fedora is installed and working on it, the only issue was the wifi card is new and is not supported in Fedora 37/38 kernels (you need the upgrade kernel). The wifi card is a realtek so I may replace it with a $20 intel card since the realtek's have in the past not been the best.
