http://www.lenovo.com/think/linux has the officially supported model
numbers and links to drivers and certifications.

There are a few currently shipping models where they officially
support Linux, but it's hard to find a way to buy one based on the
information from that page -- it looks like the easiest way is to call
them.  I don't know what they've got now, but when I looked last year,
it was much cheaper (around $1000 cheaper, actually) to just buy a
Thinkpad off one of their specials.
