In my opinion Asus is underrated if it comes to great Linux laptops. Some models have stellar Linux support, are lightweight while still having battery, disk and memory upgradable.

As to why these are so popular there's a lot of theorizing out there about just why Macbooks are so popular (eg: good design [1], brand cachet and clean looking software) and why they're secretly terrible (eg: overpriced from a spec perspective and thermal throttling issues) [1] ignoring recurring internal design issues the outside build is still some of the best out there, though a lot of brands are catching up.

- kjeetgill 7y agoMy 2cents: My absolutely favorite thing about the MacBooks are the aluminium unibody. I can drop it, abuse it, put my suitcase on it and at worse the metal may bend or scratch a bit. No cracks, no wearing smooth, no discoloration. I don't care much for osx, but jeez it's a robust laptop.
