[CALUG] Linux on a laptop

[Ainsley]

I personally like the KDE desktop, and with KDE-4 coming out with the new
version of Kubuntu I would say thats the way to go. I have used several
distros over the years, but for a laptop, that most things will work on off
the bat (provided usability and functionality is what you desire), Ubuntu,
Kubuntu are your better options. Open BSD is just not there yet, but pain is
good and you will learn a lot :-o) I will admit I have not used the OpenBSD
for a little while and perhaps its better now, but Linux is what you asked
about anyway.
