Should I get Ubuntu for my laptop?
I'm definitely getting Ubuntu. The question is more of a "will it work" question. I have a Compaq Mini 110 and it works rather well. I'm just curious as to if all the drivers will work. 1GB of ram, 1.60GHz processor, and everything else is integrated.There's no hot keys to worry about. I just need re-assurance that it will work.
P.S - Do you think I should get Desktop or Net Bookk, 10.04 or 10.10

desktop 10-10 will work perfect, when you come to install you will get the option to install side by side with windows, or use the entire disc, if you install side by side you can choose which system to use windows or ubuntu, you can also use ubuntu as a live cd before you install to make sure you like it before you install to the hard disc. hope this is of help good luck.

Simply start your laptop from the installation disc. The installation disc functions as a so called live CD as well, meaning that you can take Ubuntu for a "test drive" to see if you like it and if all your hardware is recognized properly. Wireless network adapter drivers are the most important to verify, as these are the most difficult to get working under any version of Linux.

Yes it should work with Ubuntu.
Go with the netbook edition if you have a small screen, say 13 inches or less, otherwise I would stick with the desktop version. And you might as well go 10.10.
