This may be heresy, but what does one need Linux FOR on a laptop?  It's
not as though you're planning on using it as a server, since you're
taking it with you wherever you go.  It's not as though you're having
multiple people use it at the same time (since you can't even find
internet connection, currently).  A frreind of mine has a laptop which
is running windows 98, and the machine is quite solid.  It's well up to
the task of opening up putty, and connecting elsewhere, or doing
documents.  It even plays starcraft (the only game worth playing, most
times).  What I'm getting at I guess is, I don't see the purpose of
hassling with Linux for a laptop.
