Hey Jeff,
I've used more distributions than I care to count on my Inspiron 8100. 
They all work relatively the same, it's just some require more tweaking 
than others. Redhat or Mandrake were the distributions that needed the 
least amount of tweaking as far as hardware is concerned. You might want 
to continue working with RedHat if that is what you are more familiar with.
