thinkpads are nice if you like the kind of retro style they have

Clevo/Sagar laptops tend to have reasonable performance, so they might be worth considering. Mentioning it since they are a less well known brand.

Carbon X1 looks good, but no 32gb option as well

I have a Clevo N65 without GPU running Linux with an i5-6500 desktop cpu in it. If you find a clevo reseller you can make it as expensive or cheap as you want. Really liking it

Andrey - Since you are after a business class (?) laptop that is very reliable then you might want to look at any Lenovo Thinkpad T series (safe bet with Linux especially when it comes to power management - Thinkpads set the gold standard here), and Dell XPS series (they have some Linux versions), all subject to Linux compatibility of course.
MacBooks aren't business class laptops.
