Does anybody know how much work is required to run Linux on this thing? I read some documents but found them complicated enough that I don't want to deal with on my daily computer. Also there seems to be driver problem related to thermal issues. So I ended up with virtual machines every time considering installing Linux on Mac.

Anybody running Linux on Macbooks or Mac Pro? Does it work well?

I run Linux on a Macbook Pro (late 2013). It works remarkably well considering this hardware came out a few months ago. The only thing that doesn't work are the Thunderbolt ports (they work for everything except monitors, which crashes the machine after ~10 minutes).
