Most of them can be ordered new with Ubuntu. I am using Dell Latitude series for more than 10 years (professionally, as a dev, so you can imagine that the system is not sleeping during working hour), solid hardware and good Linux support. I only saw minor degradations across 4 laptops and only one or two tricks sometimes necessary like for the wifi or eth chip when configuring the system but I always win at the end.
