things are in fact going extremely badly but we'll see if they pick up starting tomorrow night for reasons that will preclude me being here for about a week (seeing my SO)

Debian has always worked pretty easily for me on ThinkPads. I guess it depends what you're trying to run it on.

    It really depends on what hardware you have. A new laptop just released last month will have a ton of issues with any linux distro. The guy we're replying to installed linux on a mac laptop. Not ever easy! The ThinkPads often work well with any distro, as far as I know. Same goes for HP laptops. BUT, most gaming laptops are a no-go, unless you're ready to spend hours tweaking after installation.
