Depends entirely on what you think. Someone suggested Sphinux here recently. I took one look at it, went "yuk", and dumped it. Others might think it's great.

First, instead of directly installing the Linux distro on your laptop, why don't you first run it from a live CD, or a USB, and then see if things work properly. If not, you do not have to go through the procedure of the actual install.
Secondly, regarding issues with drivers and all, it's better if you post these in the forum of the distros.. because you are most likely to get a proper response there, and not here. Here, you might get a response only when the hardware of some other member is exactly similar to yours, otherwise not. On the forum, the developers can give you a proper reply regarding the drivers and other hardware issues. Their forum is the proper place. Here on this forum, we can only provide general help.
