I installed the newest Fedora on mine (15), and it runs twice as fast as it did with windows on it. I don't know exactly what your screen resolution is, but it works fine with a 1024x600.

I think I'll use linux mint. It's ubuntu but with a few changes and Gnome 2.

He did specify Ubuntu, which does not include a certain Red Hat based distribution.
