My ThinkPad T540p is pretty nice with Linux. I stuck 2 SSDs in it (no optical drive), loaded it with 16GB of RAM, and it has a nice high res LCD.
Although it has a full numberpad (a must for me) I do wish the LCD had an ambient light sensor for auto dimming, and I wish the keyboard were back-lit. It has built-in Bluetooth too, which is nice because my mouse is BT. Oh, and my model has the fingerprint reader option, and that too works in Linux! Actually, everything I've tried has. I have 2 external monitors attached, for a total of 5,760x3,480 of screen real estate.
