Is that true generally? I know my old (2008?) Macbook Pro supported Linux well, but I think that took a few years to get things like good trackpad, bluetooth, and wifi support. I remember getting a new one and it couldn't boot into the installer for most distros and still had driver issues (that might have been resolved).

Macs seem to support Linux a few years after release. They were usually a great choice when modern macOS got too slow for that model.

I also never found a good fit on the Windows side for a Linux laptop. I always ran Linux on a desktop. So maybe I would choose a Mac laptop to run Linux...
