That has generally been my experience as well. Not that HP or Fujitsu or whatever won't get the job done but most of the work laptops I've used are Dells, and I've used Apple and Thinkpads at home. If I needed a new laptop now I'd probably lean on a Thinkpad T series and put Ubuntu or Fedora on it.
