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.
