I don't believe you can buy a Vaio with Linux preinstalled, and Sony doesn't provide Linux drivers for their machines. So, you'd be paying for Windows (which you don't want to use), and then installing an OS that doesn't have all the drivers you need to use everything. I'd say stick with Apple. Also, you can easily use OS X as your sole OS... Linux is still far too limited in applications (unless you start running Windows in a VM or really get into the nuts and bolts of Wine).

Sony and Apple are about the same really -- more expensive than other brands, but good looking machines. Given he doesn't want to use Windows, I'd definitely go Apple.
