You could go precision though. Which is what I did. Precision 5520 has an Ubuntu option and works flawlessly with Linux. 32-64g of DDR4 and 12h of battery with the 9cell upgrade

I should know. I’ve been using one for nearly a year.

What's the added weight of default 3 cell to 9 cell battery? Last I checked you could only upgrade to 6 cell.

Holding out for next generation of Intel (or, now, AMD) CPUs before picking up another Precision. Great, beastly powerful machines, have been running Fedora since 2010 on Precision line.

The Precision is a great option if you're looking for a 15" laptop.
