It's not just finding compatible wireless that's a problem! You can also mostly eliminate:
• Any laptop with an nVidia GPU
• Any laptop that uses switchable graphics (unless you're okay with terrible battery life from the GPU being always on)
• Any AMD laptop (because even with custom cpu patches, the integrated graphics won't work).
That's a lot of laptops, particularly in the type of segments people would likely be most interested in, since Apple doesn't make them. Combined with the aforementioned wifi compatibility problems, you really need to do your research first!
