If you get a good deal on it, an old MacBook (Retina Pro from 2013, 2014 or ideally 2015) can also be a very nice Linux laptop. They are sturdy, sleek and you won’t find a better trackpad or screen on any laptop in the same price range. Although maybe not the best performance for the price.
I also very much recommend Linux mint. I’m personally a bigger fan of fedora but Linux mint ist a very good choice for a bit older/cheaper laptops.
