Linux on a laptop....aye.

I have tried .....

PC Linux
Ubuntu
Fedora
Red Hat Enterprise 3 + 4


Wifi seemed easier to make work under Fedora 8 (ndiswrapper with Windose drivers). I liked Ubuntu the best. PC Linux seems to have the most apps ready installed. RHEL was more of a training install - I am an RHCE.

As the software is free you have nothing to lose but a bit of time downloading and installing......if you find the right Linux magazine they often have a DVD with several versions on for free.

Give it a try......
