Just do Windows. Windows 10 has really tight integration with Linux as a development enviroment now https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/announcing-wsl-2/

To be clear I'm talking about hardware quality, not compatibility with Linux. Though I still disqualify any laptop that can only run windows.

That's why I mentioned it. It's easier to find quality hardware for Windows vs something that is fully compatible with Linux. I wouldn't have mentioned it if Linux wasn't as closely integrated into Windows as it is now. Also, Microsoft's Surface Pro line is the closest in quality to the Macbook Pros, even more so than the ThinkPad line. Even though I use Ubuntu regularly, its GUI still isn't on par with Mac or Windows, which is another reason that I mentioned it. This said, I'm still mainly using Apple for now.
