1. Can you live without proper function keys on new Macbook Pro. 2. How good is Thinkpad lineup ?

Reviews are welcome.

Dell XPS developer edition with Ubuntu has good reviews.

I just picked up an Asus Q505UA. The build quality is great and everything works on Ubuntu save for the fingerprint scanner.
