Hi I would tend to stick to the Ubuntu laptops with Dell, but in most cases you are pretty good with any of the brands. I personally use (K)Ubuntu on a Dell Latitude and a Toshiba (cant remember which one, about 1 year old). The very first thing you need to look at is the Wireless card - check that it is compatible... second thing it the graphics card. Nvidia is well supported, and ATI is supposed to be but i have had problems with them. Intel is also sometimes dodgy. Other than that you are pretty much clear to go with anything (in my opinion).
