Dell has put out Linux laptops (XPS and Precision) with both Redhat and now Ubuntu for years. The problem is that they don't keep up with updates, and so you buy an XPS in 2017, and then decide to update to the next non-LTS version of Ubuntu, and eventually more and more of your hardware no longer 'just works'. And since moving to Mac, I just can't get used to my Dell Precision anymore because certain things like fonts and touchpad are just so inferior to a Macbook from the same year. And this is probably half the problem: If they concentrate on only one or two models, then they either have to pick their top-end line (Precision or Thinkpad) to compete for pro users who'd go with $3000 Macbook Pros, or instead target the lower end budget users on Inspirons or Lenovo Yogas who'd otherwise just use Windows. So instead, it just seems like Linux is mediocrely supported on most of their laptop lines, but not a single one is 100% supported long term like it would be with a Mac or any Windows box.
