Hello and welcome to InfiniteMac board,

Your post was moved to a more appropriate place, thanks for understanding.
Laptop you have is just fine, well capable of running OSX and i think pretty much supported. Explore the forum, Wiki link as well. Read the forum rules regarding posting links, downloadable distros etc..

P.S. As your system is great for OSX any distro will work fine for you. Just pick the most recent version.

Enjoy your stay here!

Also if you are completely new to OS X I would advice you to keep Windows and install Leopard on a second partition instead of going OS X only. There are many guides how to multiboot OS X and Vista that you can read on how to resize Vista partition and install OS X on the remaining space.
