Stu, I tried Ubuntu and did not really like it on one of my notebooks. It worked fine but seemed a little slow. Additionally it took me a while to get my wireless adapter to work with it being unfamiliar with debian package management and what I consider poor tools in general available for wireless adapter configuration. I have enjoyed using OpenSuse 10.0 the most on work stations and notebooks. I had not touched Suse for 10 years when I hated it. I had no problem installing it and YaST has sure come a long way (very nice tool). It seems to run quicker that Ubuntu, was not quiet as simplified as Ubuntu, but sure had a short learning curve. I use YaST to configure wireless with Suse which works ok, but still think the wireless adapter configuration tools are poor! In general I use RHEL and its clones on my servers (no X) and am happy with them but do not like RedHat products on desktops, workstations, or notebooks. Fedora has a short life span and many bugs that I always hear about. Enterprise Linux is not polished enough with its desktop interface. My 2 cents...
