I would be careful of the HP laptops if you're going to put linux on 
them.  You might remember from a few months ago the trouble I had with 
my HP desktop running linux.  It liked to lock up at random, sometimes 
within 20 minutes of booting up, sometimes it might last a day or two.  
Recently my sister asked me to put linux on her HP laptop.  I did and it 
had the same locking up at random issue.
