I absolutely love my Dell Rugged Extreme 12.. it's insanely expensive but literally bomb-proof (designed to handle the pressures from an exploding bomb.. even if my frail human form won't). It runs Linux almost perfectly -- better than Windows. Windows 10 had issues coming back from suspend (the screen would stay black.. dead), and losing all mouse tracking at random times. Linux only has issues coming back from suspend and they're not even as bad (sometimes you can't get a network connection). And the hardware is fantastic. No sharp edges for your wrists. I used to be a thinkpad fan, but this thing is insanely great. (However, I do miss the old-style thinkpad keyboards and the modular batteries.. but battery life on this thing is great anyway.) It's also good to chock the wheels with if you have to change a tire or heaving at someone who insults your laptop. I do like multi-purpose devices.
