I am very positively surprised by this effort. It's rare (to me) for a vendor claiming Linux support to show even a modicum of interest beyond a very specific configuration. I'm aware that this was a particular case and don't expect all cases to be responded to in the same manner, but just the general impression I'm left with (with regards to Linux support) is positive enough that I'm confident that my next laptop will be a Lenovo.
