Hi Ruby Peeps

I'm considering getting a new laptop, and although I had a great experience 
with my last macbook, I'm leaning towards buying something else and just 
running linux on it.  The fact that everything is soldered to the 
logic/mother board on the new macbooks is a real deal-breaker.  Also, I'm 
not sure I want to support Apple because of their business practices.

I'd like to hear some suggestions / info about the following topics:

Best resources for buying a customizable, quality OEM laptop.  Especially 
if anyone knows of a manufacturer that is US-based.  

Any regrets / joy from anybody switching from OS X to Linux ?

Any real problem with software running better in the OS X environment ?  I 
am an Ableton Live user, and supposedly, it runs well on Linux.  That is 
the only must-have software that I am really worried about.  But I would 
still like to hear from people about anything else that is problematic.     
   

Thanks in advance for your feedback and sorry for the gear-related post.
