Asus ZenBook working well for me with linux for the last 3 years. I've always had good linux support from thinkpads too. The Asus replaced an apple macbook pro, the model where apple shipped broken GPUs and didn't recall, so that one is a very expensive web-browser that constantly panics and reboots, giving me the opportunity to write a sentence to apple about how I feel about their miserable company that I'm sure nobody will ever read. "The Donald Trump of Computing Companies." Apple really are amazing though. Top comment is an apple fan boy desperate to continue to believe in apple and affronted by the existence of other laptops while other kool-aid drinkers up vote even though it's got stuff all to do with the ThinkPad X1 Carbon. Probably hasn't even got an apple logo shaved into his head!
