I just got a Thinkpad T420 from Los Alamos Computers today. The wireless card and graphics cards are both not working with Trisquel. ( They really shouldn't have let me purchase it with Trisquel pre-installed if the PC doesn't support it.) My suggestion would be to go to stores with a bootable usb in hand to test.

So the time has come for me to get a laptop. I was drawn to Thinkpads
because I know they work, but was unable to find anything recent (new
or used) that  came sans Windows and given Lenovo's policy of not
refunding the Windows tax  I looked at other manufactures. I tried
Dell, but they don't sell Laptops with Ubuntu anymore, I know someone who had a very bad experience with System76 and Los Alamos Computer's
Thinkpads cost twice as much as comparable  models with Windows. Any
suggestions?
