Here is page that you might find helpful:

https://www.debian.org/distrib/pre-installed

Aside from that, there are many laptops on which you can install and use
Debian 9 without problem. From personal experience, you can always pick
Dell that comes with pre-installed Ubuntu on it. Debian will install on
it too, though you will probably need non-free firmware for most of
those ( not problem at all if you use install image with non-free
firmware ). Also it is worth checking these links:

Debian pre-installed system

2000-10-10 Thread Kevin Krafthefer
Does anyone know a computer manufacture that sells machines with Debian
installed on them?

 VA Linux Systems also sell preinstalled Debian boxes.

Makes me wonder... why do people prefer skipping the got it stage?

 Also, why is GNU/Hurd called GNU/Hurd?  If I'm not

For the same reason it is called GNU/Linux.  It's a GNU-System
using the Linux or Hurd respectively kernel.

Yes, but that's because Linux comes from outside of
the FSF.  If I'm not mistaken, Hurd comes from FSF and
so could simply be called part of GNU.  So the entire
GNU/Hurd system could just be called a GNU system.

If Hurd would have come entirely from inside the FSF it would have
seen the light five years ago.  Richard waited for a university
finishing the Mach code (Michigan comes to my mind...).

Anyway, It's still a GNU system so why shouldn't it be named that
way, the same way the other Debian systems are named?

Well, I may be totally wrong... :)

Debian pre-installed

Also, why is GNU/Hurd called GNU/Hurd?  If I'm not
mistaken the original purpose of the GNU project was
to come up with an entire OS, but there was no Kernel
so Linux was used instead.  Also AFAIK Hurd comes from
the FSF.  So why not just call the whole thing GNU? 
Finally, we would be saying my machine runs GNU
rather than calling it something else, like Linux or
UNIX, but having many of the core OS binaries be GNU.
