Which laptop to choose so that 1 - be productive, 2 - be friends with Linux, 3 - keep charging

I did not buy iron for five years, so I lagged behind progress a little. Advise plz.

Requirements
1) performance (percentage and memory, the gaming part is not important)
2) compatibility with Linux (so as not to dance for three days to set up hibernation)
3) could work without charging for longer than 3 hours
4) not too heavy

In size, 15 inches, I think. Maybe 17, if not heavy. Basically it will stand at home as a workstation. Sometimes I will take it on the road. For brands, I tend to lenovo, although this is not critical. For money - a spread of 20-60tyr.

Thank you!

15.4'' MacBook Pro on Core i7 just about fits into 60.
Satisfies all requirements.

I would take something from the ThinkPad series (Lenovo, yes).

For only ~ 23 thousand (for example , there is one here ) you can buy a fresh (it has been on the Russian market since May this year) Lenovo Z570A1 laptop model .
It has two vidyahi, one is discrete and the second is built into the processor directly. If you need to live longer on the battery, then switch to the Intel video card. If you need more powerful, then switch to the video card from nVidia.
It runs on a fresh Sandy Bridge Core i5 2410M processor (2300 MHz per core).
There is also a Lenovo Z570 with a Core i3 processor , it is cheaper by a couple of thousand.
ps Not so long ago, I bought myself just such a (on i5) animal

Asus u35jc and stick an SSD into it. And more memory - 6 gigabytes.
For me, this is the ideal at the moment. And easy to carry. Lives with hdd hours 8-9 (minimum brightness, wifi, browsing). With ssd - 7. The second video card does not work yet (more precisely, there is a bumblebee - they write that it works through it), but there is no need for it.
And so - yes, macbook pro. With an SSD and a bunch of memory, again.

My wife on DR gave me ASUS K53S Core i3/4Gb RAM, I'm quite satisfied.
Under linux I am satisfied with the convenience of work, under Windows the game I play is very good.
