I want to buy a laptop compatible with Linux

[Twist O'Connor]

almost all laptops are compatible.... now yours is a little more complicated
becuase well i have AMD aswell and the sad truth is alot of applications
dont support AMD ubuntu.... also the graphics card is ANOTHER wall that you
have to climb becuase you have to install a GeForce driver, and... well let
me just say it can be HARD
otherwise that laptop is FULLY capable of supporting ubuntu... and if you
want the cube desktop feel.... your computer is also compatible, but like i
said you need to setup the driver first and its hard... but do-able anyways
good luck

oo and i recomend you partition your disk... keep the origanal OS and duel
boot
