Question Laptop/Tablet Suggestions


I need to get a Laptop / Tablet for general all-round use. Here are the requirements :

1. Linux Compatible
2. Ultralight ~1-2kg
3. Solid State Hard Drive

Otherwise, decent specs ought to do it.

I looked at the Dell XT, and liked almost everything about it, but it seems that it has lousy linux support. Can anyone clarify this?

Other models I've looked at are the Sony VAIO TZ38GN, Dell XPS M(13/15)30 and the Dell Latitude D430.

Any ideas?
