Take a look at the Ububtu wiki pages:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro

With the informaion there should be no problem to install another 
distribution (if you wish).



Yes, I hate top-posting too. A great idea by Mr gates to make it the 
default for Outlook Express.

Ugh... top posting.  Virtualbox does not answer the OPs question of
"Will Linux work on my Macbook Air/Pro?"

I do not have a definitive answer, as I don't own either, but I've at
least seen/known people who ran Ubuntu on both Macbook Pro and Air
machines.

Maybe someone else on the list can provide more solid evidence, but I
have seen it run. I believe the big issues with Macbooks, IIRC, is
wireless, POSSIBLY getting good video, but I seem to recall people
having more trouble with wifi than anything.
