Magesh,

While I have had no experience with support (actually nothing broke,
although I'm a heavy user). I have a t40 and an office given t60. Both work
perfectly with almost every flavour of linux (fedora 9-10, Ubuntu
8.04-8.10).

The price range for thinkpad may not fit your budget though. The entry level
R Series starts from 43k (with 160GB HDD and very little RAM). I suppose
it's best you go with HP (any other members want to share their linux
experience with HP?)
