best laptops for debian linux

I'm looking to buy a laptop that can easily be set up to run debian linux. I do not need a high end graphics card, nor is there a real need for a big screen. Being light weight is not a primary factor, whereas rugged reliability would be. Can anyone suggest particular brands and models that fit
