As in title im am a complete noob to linux but i like change so i fancied giving it a go on my laptop! Which OS would you recommend i try? I know of Ubuntu and Linux Mint any other suggestions?

And also any decent websites explaing how to set up things, wireless networks, install programs etc.

Thanks
