john,

i have a Compaq Evo N610c Notebook 

with a few upgrades!

but, the point is, the only thing i have ever had
issues with is wireless network cards. and those are
external anyway.
this is for various distros including debian although
i have not really investigated ubuntu.
i have had mine for about 4 years now and dont feel
the need to get anything better.
