I have owned tyan dual PIII (still working under freebsd); msi dual amd (working under CentOS), GA-EP35-UD3L (F17), GA-P55-US3L. The Only problems what i had were related to drivers for rtl 811x.x chipsets under centos. Asus laptops have problems with standby mode. But with little hacking can work well. Sometime laptop fan can be noisy in current kernels.

I have owned a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P since Jan 2009; it has never broken
down, neither has it ever given me driver troubles. I have been using it
as a workstation/light server since I bought it. It even survived a
trans-atlantic move! But beware, they don't officially support Linux,
although they do have OS independent utilites for backing up and
flashing BIOSes.
