Man, how times have changed. Linux working half-decently on a laptop used to be the holy grail of opensource fans. Nowadays, thanks to Ubuntu and friends, chances are that most of it will just work, regardless of hardware. This is a massive achievement and it's not really as promoted as it should be.

Well, true. It can be challenging to install some distros, especially if the default configuration doesn't give you a working network interface. And while it can be solved, it's by no means a desirable first Linux experience.
