the DIY edition yes. I believe the more expensive laptop is meant to run Windows, but linux can be installed on it and usually works fine.
Might not run at its best if it wasn't conceived with Linux in mind. If I wanted to buy a brand new computer to run GNU/Linux on, I would buy something from a brand that specialize in computer conceived for that OS.
