I've been picky in the comments here, because if I wasn't being picky I wouldn't have much to say - it's solid code apart from the one type bug on the return value
| # Map people to laptops | ||
| allocation = {} | ||
| for i, j in zip(row_indices, col_indices):#it pairs up results (person indices and laptop indices). The loop then uses those pairs to build the final allocation dictionary | ||
| allocation[people[i].name] = laptops[j] |

You've declared the function as Dict[Person,Laptop] but are return Dict[str,Laptop]. I'm guessing you actually want the former?
| if laptop.operating_system == person.preferred_operating_systems[0]: | ||
| return 0 | ||
| elif len(person.preferred_operating_systems) > 1 and laptop.operating_system == person.preferred_operating_systems[1]: | ||
| return 1 |

Hard-coding the 0,1,2 feels clunky here. If you're explicitly saying that if it's not in the top 3 it's terrible, then that's one thing. But this code looks like a failure to use index to get the ranking of the laptop. Either explicitly have a "maximum rank for any happiness" (as you appear to have here, but don't say) or use and index (making sure it copes with not found correctly)

Dell have started making macBooks? who knew? 😄

You're using a "black box" algorithm here. It is entirely opaque what it is doing or how it is working. For me, this would trigger adding some test files to check that it is working how I expect it to.

Used Hungarian Algorithm to minimize sadness score across all lptop users.
