What would be a good brand and model of NEW laptop to buy for Linux?

ThinkPads were always my go to, and some old macbook airs.

These always seemed to be the most compatible and reliable and practical.

I need to help a friend choose one now who wants to buy BRAND NEW.

Any suggestions?

I would go with an Asus, I have never had any issues setting up the few I have tried. I also just recently set up a HP Victus gaming laptop without any problems.

I hear you, I don't really like them either. Have a HP desktop that sucked as a windows box but improved when I put a couple flavors of linux on it.

The Victus I got too good of deal for the hardware to pass up last year on black Friday. Was looking for a comparable Asus but couldn't find one. So far its worked great.
