except "that" laptop which was a Toshiba, all the rest of them were Thinkpads. Maybe that's it? My requirements for "just works" change over the years, and maybe at times I was a bit lax (I don't really need a fingerprint reader) but yeah everything so far just worked (including that print reader in recent years). I still plan to move to Arch because 20 years is a long time and change is inevitable, but I need some free time first...
