Please, for your own sake, go to Linux Mint's site, grab an iso and
try that installation. 99% of hardware is fully supported with Mint -
at least try that. If something goes wrong then tell us the specifics.

As a long time computer _user_ moving from Windows to *nix,
I would recommend carrying that advice one step further.
I downloaded as many LiveCD's as I had time for. They were
based on several distros and came with a variety of desktop
environments.
It demonstrated the breadth of what can be done. Debian
seems to be the best fit to ME. I've not settled on a
desktop environment yet. My investigation show I may not be
looking for a DE per se but a windows manager. If I had not
expermented with multiple flavors, I would have ended up
with a very poor impression of *nix in general.
