installing linux "these days"

I tried installing linux on my SO's (significant other) laptop today. WHAT IS WRONG WITH UBUNTU!! It takes ages to load up and the install process is resource intensive enough to make the laptop totally unresponsive. Finally installed Fedora and I am not happy with it. I will install debian for her, once I find out where to get blank CD here.

    Try ArchLinux. I migrated to it, after seeing the dust which choked my CPU fan after using Gentoo for six months. It is Gentoo like and has binary packages available in repositories. The package management system "pacman" is fantastic and faster than dpkg/apt-get rpm/yum, etc.
