Hum... while I can't help you with "where to get the laptop", I will tell you something that came to my mind when reading your post. My laptop, for some reason, only works with "Debian based distros". Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, Trisquel, Puppy, Tails, all work great. But anything that comes from Fedora (Fedora, CentOS) doesn't work. I don't know why, it seems like the laptop is dating Debian or something :P So, if you can run Fedora and not Trisquel, maybe trying Fedora (or some Fedora based) distro will be the best chance. Also, you have to decide if you want free bios or not. If you do, glug is the best choice. If not, you can take a livecd of Trisquel or Fedora or whatever, and go to a shop and ask to test it. Many stores alow that. Give it a try and let us know of the results :)
