But it's not really a full-service desktop. Ubuntu is a good install and ok "live" (if you like Gnome; or Kubuntu or Xubuntu if you like KDE or light WM's) with good laptop support; that's what I'm using for new installs now. There is an Ubuntu InstallFest in Cambridge MA this Saturday if you want "spotters" for a full install. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MassachusettsTeam/Events/InstallFests/2007-10-13 PCLinuxOS has gotten good buzz lately.
